i've just installed i new alternator and when i was testing it i noticed the output shaft that the water pump pulley bolts too is slightly bent
do i need to replace the water pump?

Cheers

is it the pump shaft or the pulley thats wobbling?

I would loosen the pulley bolts and make sure its on square and do em back up, if the pump shaft was bent it would leak pretty bad

i thought it was the pulley at first but it sort of looks like the flange on the waterpump is bent

Wow. How the hell did you manage that?

[Mike]

wouldn't you like to know
not sure really its not bent that but the size of the pulley exagerates the problem
i think its been like that for quite a while
