Water Pump Bolts breaking

3 posts in this topic

I've had a bit of a nightmare with the water pump. After changing the radiator the pump started leaking, when I tried to remove it I sheared two bolts (being heavy handed and not taking my time). I've fitted a new O ring and refitted the pump minus one bolt where I couldn't get the broken one out, I thought I'd try it, not really believing that it would hold but it has, amazingly. After looking online I think a Blackbird pump may fit if I need to get another. Anyway long and short of it is, take care when trying to remove the water pump!!!

Hope it holds for you, the bikes too heavy to push far. Good luck.

I know I had to push it uphill for a few miles when the battery died, or else it would have been stolen.
