Hi All,
So my water pump was leaking (from the vent) on my 2006 Rocket 90,000km , I got a new pump.
I notice that the seal is installed backwards compared to the original.
Which one is right? (old pump on left, new one on right)
Would orientation of the seal affect anything?
THEN I look in the bucket, this appear to be oil in the coolant. My overflow had it too.
So I'm freaking out, I'm thinking head gasket... I'm getting ready to leave for a 5000km trip next week.
I dropped the oil, oil was clean, no coolant in it.
Thinking a lil more I have theories... I put in a brand new radiator last year, possible that it had some oily spray inside?
Is it possible that the oil was introduced from the water pump? (I'm thinking it would be more like coolant in oil but who knows)
As I mentioned, I'm getting ready to leave on a 10 day trip. Would you ride it?
Any thoughts?
Thanks guys!
