Over the past two weeks I have been using ‘t Kreng a few times for some local trips. So far the car has covered well over 200 kilometres since the new water pump was installed. There still is a slight water leak from the pump. But that has been gradually decreased over time. Though when I returned home from a longer drive last Saturday there again was a small trickle from the slot underneath the pump when I switched off the engine. The coolant level hadn’t dropped visibly though.
Another positive point is that the coolant light hasn’t come on during the various tours. That might partly be due to the fact that I polished the coolant level probe in the header tank before filling the system with coolant. And the temperature guage is fairly stable too. This might point to a better sealing water pump, causing less pressure changes in the coolant system. Fingers crossed!
Time for a tank full of RON 102 octane fuel
