Re: Swapping Water pump. Any Gotchas? 200 1983

posted by  someone claiming to be Zee on  Sun May 20 21:02 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Because I was in a pinch for time, I bought and installed an Auto Zone pump (Ampora brand?) for $35.

Can't say I am happy with it. It installed fine and looked identical to the original I took off (only due to a failed pump to cylinder head seal)

But now the temp guage sits on the tiny white dot at the 9 o'clock position. The car had a Nissens 3-row radiator.

I seem to remember the twmp guage resting *below* the white dot, at about 8 o'clock when the Volvo water pump was still in there.
