I'm worried/wondering why you had no water pump output at idle. My

When some the blades of the impeller are broken off, you may only see
water from the telltale at higher RPM. If you are replacing the
impeller and any blades or pieces of blades are missing, you need to
find them! They are somewhere in the cooling passages, and sooner or
later will find a really bad place to plug things up. You can have a
blocked passage in the head, and the telltale will continue to assure
you that everything is fine - until suddenly, its not.

While all this is true, I don't suspect this has any bearing on the
topic of discussion.


I don't respond to Salty anyway. I know where his head's usually at. It
ain't a nice place.
