Default Re: Electric Water Pump damage

What fluid do you run in the coolant system? Tap water could have some metals that will attack aluminum. Excess acidity can corrode it to. Check the Ph level of the water you use with a test kit. I run distilled water only and drained the block and pulled the water pump to change the cam this week. Lots of rust in the water but no damage to the WP.
