alscott1984 Posted September 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Thanks again Jim, I've got it fitted the correct way for certain then. 2nd question is after water contamination, approx how many oil changes after running to temp each time will it take to stop going milky/cloudy?

peterb Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Been a few years since I rebuilt a GG water pump, I got it wrong. Checked an old pump I rebuilt as a spare and it is the same as per the photo, the seal is a double lipped seal to prevent leakage from either side. The bare steel casing faces the gearbox oil. The photo is correct. Bye, Peter B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alscott1984 Posted September 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Ok that's great thanks. First oil went milky. Next change is ever so slightly discoloured so hopefully next change will have it all out. Cheers all for your help and input! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alscott1984 Posted September 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Well after a final oil change and a full days ride the oil is crystal clear so I think the shaft and seal replacement has done the trick and oil the cruddy oil is flushed out! Happy days! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
