The only water pump i worked on (on a 700 series car) was my brother's 760GLE, which as it turns out, was a B28F and not the B280F. All the others were B27/28F's on 200 series cars. Strikingly similar in appearance but different enough to cause confusion! Once you get this six wrangled I am hoping it will be as good to you as mine have been to me.
1976 260 wagon B27F, M46 >>> drove for 5 years (bought in '87, rain casualty, jeep rear ended it doing 40)
1976 260 wagon B27F, AW55 >> drove for 9 years (sold to me late '91 as "doesnt run", bought for chassis to replace above, fixed it and drove til trans went)
1980 262C coupe B28F, M46 >>>8 years (bought off original owner in '96, still runs good and I have it stashed away, drove it for 5 of the 8 years)
The turbo sedan is my all around car and was another lucky find, only 156K on the clock as of yet, I've been driving this one for five years. The coupe will leave this sedan in the dust any day of the week. I should find an intercooler kit for it and mess with it's limit switches and boost actuator (a la Turbobricker style) but I don't want to blow it up quite yet. Why am i talking about this car anyways? It isn't even a V6 and doesnt belong in this discussion.
Anyhow i did water pumps on all those cars plus some friends' V6 cars. The job really isnt that bad, not like pulling a head or anything. You can do eeet!
