All of that happened within a couple of minutes. You might get away with pressing a new steel pulley onto it, but for the price of a new pump you wouldn't bother. Edit: Yes the actual pump internals might still be ok. Expand pretty much lol should of just hit the dam cat lol nah guess its not to bad lol price of pump is cheap so might as well replace it as well, On 07/02/2022 at 6:28 AM, Puffwagon said: I used this in my 700+kw build and it was fine.

R ichard Member 75 Member For: 4y 1m 13d Posted 09/02/22 02:51 AM Author Share Posted 09/02/22 02:51 AM one I got looks good, so we ended up replacing the water pump, the idler and also the tensioner, the tensioner roller/pulley had started to delaminate so thought might as well replace it while we there, rather pend the money and do it all right the 1st time lol 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/96603-fg-drive-belt/page/2/#findComment-1710486 Share on other sites More sharing options...
