Yes, Mark, I think it is very possible that the pump would sieze - although
I doubt many people have deliberately tried it to find out!
Adding grease may help, but I don't know how long for - I wouldn't rely on
it as a long-term thing without regular re-greasing.
What is more intriguing to all of us is why you would ask this hypothetical
question?? Are you considering bypassing your water pump with an electric
pump or something? If so, what are your reasons for wanting to do this?
