Although a] I did not sell either to you; and b] I do not know the vendor, I
am BCCing this post to the Q.C. Gent at Moss.  I am pretty sure he is not even
on the digest form of this List so I would expect that his reply will come to
me directly.
I WILL forward his reply INTACT to the List.  Hope this will help.

Subject: [Healeys] County water pumps


Folks,

After 3,000 miles the County water pump in my 62 BT7 needs replacing.  I'm
guessing the bearings are shot - it rumbles at 1000 rpm and I can wiggle
the fan blades (at 0 rpm) and watch the pulley rock.

The spare in the boot is also a County.  So I'm wondering if I'm going to
have to replace it in another year or so?  Have there been other problems
with the County water pumps?  Is there a better pump available?

Is anyone rebuilding pumps?

Bob
