Water pump Gates or Hepu

in the last 10+ years have been using HEPU waterpumps.

I usually end up with Gates or AC Delco.

Can't go wrong with a Gates pump.

Ive reinstalled another new HEPU(made in germany) pump due to mileage. I don't think anything is wrong with the old one. When I cleaned the o-ring seal contact area on the block it was corroded right where it left an imprint.

We used to install gates pump and belt kits, but saw too many leaking water pumps well before they were due for another belt. Switched to aisin kits and haven't had a problem.

Did a gates kit on mine. Water pump is leaking after 60k miles.

a Hepu which went seven years/60,000 miles before it started leaking. I think the additional mass of the metal impeller put more stress on the bearing and seal.

Am pățit la fel dar cu o pompa Hepu, a mea a avut un sunet înainte să crape și la 120km/h a cedat axul, similar cum a fost a ta.

If the hepu water pump I put on my 3.0T is anything to go by, I don't know that I would recommend them for chains.

I put a Hepu water pump in about 20k miles ago.
