water pump seals sprint

[DailySprinter]

I'm sure there has been a thread on a different version of a water pump seal that did not rely on the seal between impeller and seal. <br>
Was it Robsport?<br>
Do they work well?

There is one in one of my 1850's. Its too early to say but no probs in about 1000 miles.<br>

Cheers John, I'll give robsport a shout, fed up with rebuilding pumps with standard kit and getting a leak, even after getting impellers ground too.<br>

would be another possible source.<br>

The graphite seals do work but sometimes take a while to bed in. Any temptation to tap the pump down with the birmingham screwdriver is to be resisted...<br>

I rang robsport, apparently its not them that do that seal. Although they did suggest as I had got the impellor faced that I run it for atleast 100 miles to bed it in.
