Another pretty part ready for installation.\u00a0 As with just about everything else relating to this 101 1300\u00a0rebuild, the waterpump is not just an off the shelf purchased part\u00a0that gets to be bolted on.\u00a0 Theoretically the waterpump is an owner servicable part and rebuild kits are available, but years in a hostile environment means the average, or even above average DIY Alfa owner is going to need help.<\/p>\n

I pressed the impeller out of the bearings and found it to be in good shape with little corrosion or wear on the bearing and sealing surfaces.\u00a0 Once the impeller was out I removed the snap ring that positioned the outer bearing and that is where I got hung up.\u00a0 I wasn’t sure which way to try and press the bearings out and the special seal with the toleranced mounting flange and spring was all corroded.\u00a0 At this point I decided I could irrepairably damage the pump if I wasn’t careful so I put all the parts in a plastic bag and delivered it, along with my rod bearings to John Norman Racing where Dan Marvin rebuilt it.<\/p>\n

\"water-pump-rebuilt\"<\/a>101 1300 waterpumps are no longer available, so if yours has a problem treat it gently, don’t assume you can buy a new one.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"waterpump-loosely-mounted\"<\/a>The rebuild included a pair of new bearings, a new seal, light clean-up of the impeller, a new tach drive seal and soda blasting.\u00a0 Hopefully it will work as good as it looks.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"101-1300-fan\"<\/a>Here is the cool early fan, a one piece unit with the pulley that is keyed to the pump.\u00a0 I have since polished this up to a respectable sheen but alas, I didn’t have my camera with me so you have to take my word for it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

How much did the rebuild cost?\u00a0 The parts were about $40, not sure yet how much the labor will be as I will be paying the a few bills at the same time.\u00a0 Look for a post about connecting rod small end bushings and 1750 waterpump installation in the daily Berlina.
