what's a bad water pump bearing sound like?



sounds like what I did, whines at rpm speeds, and your temp rises faster
than usual.
I just replaced mine 2 month agao.. Man its quieter in tthere now.

=>Silly rabbit did not replace the water pump when he rebuilt the engine.
=>
=>I did the old garden hose to the ear trick and pinpointed it to
=>somewhere in
=>that area.  I thought it was the idler pulley, but I replaced it.  But I
=>still got a nice knocking noise coming from that area.  It felt
=>like it had
=>some play in it, but I have no way of knowing what's normal.  No leakage
=>though...(?)
=>
=>Anyone wanna place bets before I pull off the belt or replace it outright?
