    Any way to check CRD Water pump

    The bastard got hot on me going up the freeway outta Adelaide Saturday. Not as bad as last time. It got to 109C. The only thing not replaced was the water pump. Is there any tell tale like a drip or anyway to test the bastard before I replace it? Thermostat has already been replaced. Recon radiator done. Viscous hub has been serviced. What else could it be? Has been fine up till Saturday

    IF YA DONT GET STUCK YA AINT TRYIN HARD ENOUGH........OR YA TOOK THE CHICKEN TRACK

    I'd have to find the docket, but from memory they replaced the oil, something else i cant remember. It sounds like an XD XE falcon fan now. I felt it against another same year as mine and it feels identical

    Well I stopped it overheating up the freeway today by not having it in O/D. Didnt go over 94C. Looks like I need a trans service and add a trans cooler
