I have identified that my BJ8 water pump is noisy.
First thought that it was the fan (bad at certain RPM) but after =
removing the belt it squeaks when rotated.
Looking at my drivers handbook, a lube point is shown.
However mine does not have one, only a small rectangular hole at the top =
and bottom that I think is for removing the bearing retaining clip....?
Noise sounds to me like a dry bearing. Is there any way to lubricate it =
in situ ??
There is no lateral or longitudinal bearing play and the pump is =
supposedly quite new per PO but not been used much.
Any ideas ? =E2=80=93or do I just bite the bullet and pull it and get a =
replacement; I note bearings are over 70% of cost of complete pump.
