Re: new water pump not working please help
only thing I can figure is that you have a clog somewhere.. does your motor have a tell tale line? if it does maybe you could hook a water hose up to it and back flush..or flush through the t-stat hole..if that does not do it you may have to pull the head cover..then the next place to check is the tube from the pump to the power head...I am not real familiar with the old motors like that but these are normal places to look for clogs. you can test the pump by removing the foot, connecting a tube in the pump housing then put it in a barrel and hand turn the drive shaft clock wise..you will not get much water but if you get some water it means that your pump is ok..I am really curious why you have impeller fins tearing, should not do that. also hook hose up to tube and see if you get good water flow through block.
