Spend about $35 at AutoZone and get a brand new lifetime warranty water pump.

A waterpump from my local Mazda dealer costs $160, bought mine @ a local parts store for $60.

I bought a brand new one with warranty for $40. Installed it myself and works like a charm.

I bet you diddn't make your own gasket, the gasket that came wit mine was shit so I had some gasket paper and I made my own gasket using a razor blade, worked like a charm!

God I just dont understand people... You are gonna spend $10 + $10-$12 shipping for a used water pump when a new one is like $30 ?

Some people have to learn the hard way I guess. I wouldn't even trust a rebuilt water pump let alone a used one. What happens when that $10 pump goes bad in 6 months? Are you going to spend another ten bucks? Scrape up some more dough and go buy a new one.

claytonjh1223 04-12-03 06:23 PM

well i guess you guys are right. they have a new one at daps for 30 bucks but.... they dont have the housing! so how do i go about that? i get the pump and housing for 17 shipped from sorrow and then i dont have to worry much til i need pump then ill buy a new one b/c ill have a housing thats good! go figure, i was actually thinking this time!

faye x7 04-12-03 07:11 PM

Yes, we are right. ;) And make sure you get a new gasket and get all of the original gasket off before you put the new pump on.

Seems to me I got one cheap at mazdatrix. DON'T use rebuilt or used water pumps. Clean the old gasket crap off, and make sure the hoses are on right and just the right tightness. I usually put some dishwashing soap inside the hose ends to make sure things seat properly. I think new hoses were $5 each at Kragens. Last year I put one in and didn't get the hoses tight enough and worried that the pump was bad until tightening the clamps solved the problem.
