Problem Solved but more questions about cooling system
For some reason the previous owner removed the water pump cam and I didnt know it was missing because I didnt know it needed one. I found the item in the online catalog when looking at new water pumps. Fortunately I had a second water pump from old engine, its an ITT model with a much smaller impeller than ones available in catalog.
Oh and now I have great water flow and a cool engine. a couple questions though;
The water jacket side plate is missing the nozzle fitting used for directing water to rear cylinder? Is this a big deal, without end cap it will shoot straight into the cylinders between 2-3.
Does anyone no where to get the impeller for what I am guessing is off early model A 4. The manufacturer is ITT.
Making good progress, I now have a running engine in my boat. 4 months ago I had 40 engine parts sitting in a basket....
