i agree with Jose.............
along with my real Healey, I have a replica Healey with an American V6 in
it...........B B recently did a radiator change, etc.......... in trying to
make sure all water was out of the block we drained it with the car running,
and it ran for a minute or two without water........ no problem...........

I do not think there is any problem in driving the car 200 feet without water.
I
would not let it warm uo but turn it on and then drive it for the 200 -500
feet
you need... as long as it doesnt turn into 200-500 miles...

[Healeys] driving without water pump
Moss is out of water pumps until late
December. I need to move my Healey
about 200 feet, the last bit up an incline.
The bad water pump has been
removed and the coolant drained. B Will I endanger
the car driving it this way?
Engine on two minutes or less. Or should I warm
up the car for 30 seconds or
so? Other option is to get two or three people
pushing but the ground is icy.
For driving I can sand a track for the drive
wheel. Last option would be to
put the bad one back on and refill with
coolant. B Any suggestions?
Rich Kahn
