OK I will be brief!
No water to the thermostat
Figured water pump
I dropped the bottom end and put a hose up the tube that the pump feed
Lots of water flowing back, nothing at the tstat, very weak telltale
so I took out the tube that the water pump feeds - it was bent and destroyed - unbelievable - like someone went at it with a hammer.
so I took the hose and stuck it up the hole where the tube used to be - again, water flowing all over, even out what looks like a small square exhaust port on the back of the motor extension. yes water at the telltale, but nothing at the tstat.
HELP - is my motor toast? cracked or????
my only guess is that it was not completely drained last Fall and it froze over the winter - who knows??
please let me know if you have any suggestions
thanks!
