intermittant noise from RE-Medy water-pump ?
I finally got the FD to the track, and after a 20-minute session, we are hearing a slight metallic-rub that is coming from the cooling system, most prominent on the nut at 12-o'clock of the RE-Medy water-pump pulley (use used a long screw-driver touched various parts and placed our ears on the screw-driver handle).
After a 30-minute cool-down, it goes away. It is INTERMITTANT with no set pattern, or cyclical rhythm. We were thinking the pump impeller might get lose at high-temps, but then it would be cyclical noise, which it isn't ? Any other ideas ? Thanks, :-) neil FWIW, with the OLD water-pump, typically water temps would be closer to 220-F at the track; with the RE-Medy water-pump, it's been a steady 210-F running 14-lbs of boost on a mild-street port, with stock turbos 4x850cc injectors, and stock airbox, and SMIC. |
Update: it was a faulty thermostat. All is better now!
