Waterpump failure

[philip]

Your partsman is going to examine the manufacture.

You're looking for the 'O' around the 'N' cast on the pump





(this is excessive play yet ... it had not leaked ... yet)

Philip's 1982 WP:



=======================================================


Here's a SD WP I bought on eBay a few months back. It has a cast-iron body but does not impress me as a very good casting. In the last pic, note the bearing cartridge's wire clip to retain it in the housing -- and about 8mm clearance to the front! To me, that means the cartridge could slide to the front 8mm before the clip is effective.

I don't have an OEM WP handy (gave one to TDI_Joe, recycled the other one), but if someone has an OEM one off and loose, would you kindly send me a pic of the bottom (where the clip is shown on the last pic below)?

According to Nissan FAST parts lookup program, the Water Pump for a 1982 (SD22) is:

(click on any image for larger)
21010-31W26, $173. One assumes this is for a new (not rebuilt) pump.




The part No. is different for 1984 (SD25):
21010-09W25, $171.

NAPA NWP559198 is out of stock -- I just checked.

The parts man I gave the part number to, he wrote down the wrong number.

So, the water pump (correct number: NWP 559198) is on its way to me from Portland -- I will receive it tomorrow Wednesday. I will take a picture of it and post the picture.

The fan belt is here in town already.

The extra water pump gaskets are a bit harder to find; he is working to find them. That may require an additional day or two.

Gaskets are on their way too.

WOw.. thats such good news.

[plenzen]

Is that a bearing clip/retainer or the top coil of the spring for the mechanical seal?

Looks to me to be a retaining clip.

.... snip---Looks to me to be a retaining clip.

This is the genuine Japan "N" item.


This is the "N" item "clip" port.

Got the WP, belt, gaskets today.

The water pump is NAPA NWP 559198, $67, and looks a lot better than the other new WP I showed upthread. It comes with the fan clutch mounting studs and a block gasket.

WP-to-block gaskets are Fel-Pro 35353, $2 ea.


Belt (non-A/C, non-PS) is 25-9375, $12.

Wow Al.

This looks so good. I can promise that Shreck will be so happy...

Yes my Land-Rover has it's own name

He is green.. like the swamps and scares the paint and chrome of all the fancy BMW.s , Audi and Mercedes because he is build like a tank

dont you find the sd22 is far to gutless for the landie??

( ithought my sd33 was far to gutless for mine before turboing etc)

[asavage]

61 HP isn't enough?

I've hauled some pretty good loads in my 720s. Fast is not always of prime importance. Economy is pretty good with the SD22.

[Land-Rover SI]

About horsepower.

The original engine from 1956 had mearly 50 Hp.

The thing that makes my car get around in mother nature so perfectly is the gearbox, the low weight and short distance between the axels.

The weight of my 86" L-R is about 1600 KG ( about 3400 pounds )

When i now have 61 Hp with the enourmus Nm from a diesel engine i dont need anything more.

My car is not made to go 100 mph on the highway but i can do 5 mph in any terrain at nearly any angle.

It's about gears, Zen.
