zulfi Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Damaged sealing of water pump means that there will be a leak from the water pump. \the seal helps in preventing any kind of leak. So yes, when you notice any leak from the pump, it mean the seal is broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danish Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Ok. And how the seal damages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zulfi Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 The main reason is rust and contamination in the cooling system. When the sediments or rust particles are surrounding the cooling system, it circulates in the entire cooling system and wear out the water pump sealing. It’s dangerous actually. When the seal is broken or damaged, there is no chance you can repair the water pump. The only option is to replace it which offcourse goes little bad on your pocket.
