Hi all,
I´ve been having over heating problems with my ´90 851. running OK
for a while (10-20min) then up to 120c and staying there.

I opened up the water pump housing to find the impeller can be rotated
by hand in both directions as well as held still while cranking the
engine... this can´t be good!

I heard somewhere that the steel shalt lets go of the plastic
impeller. My question is, now that the cover is off, how can I get the
impeller and shaft out?

Mike
