Water Pump seal - renewed but still leaking
« on: June 20, 2025, 03:37:46 PM »
I had a small oil leak from the drain hole under the water pump , so I replaced the seal and other parts with a kit supplied by Ricambio - this was done in situ (so the drive shaft remained in place) , sadly on completion , I now have both oil and water leaking ... my assumption is that both oil and water seal are not seated correctly - when I fitted them , both were tapped into place using the relevant sized sockets, so I now have to repeat this all over again .

Has anyone else recently suffered this problem (there was a post in 2016 about this issue) what else can I do to ensure correct sealing ?

Thanks
