Thanks
All ready bought the impeller. Planned on pulling the head this week. I hope its the head or head gasket.

Don't continue to run w/ water in the cylinder as it will definetly not last long. Much cheaper to fix now. Head gaskets are relatively cheap for those engines (35 to 50 bucks). Pull the head, look around and see if you can find any problems. Should be able to find where the water is coming from. If the gasket - go buy a new one. Also - you definetly need to change the impeller. Do the head first, then the impeller. Good luck, |
