Snake oil alert is precisely why I sound off against your collective
wisdom... But as Davies Craig point out that, at idle, the conventional
water pump is at minimum flow as is the air flow through the radiator. At
high revs the water pump is going like crazy at the same time as air flow is
huge. The electric pump speeds up and slows down according to water temp
regardless of engine revs thus keeping a more even temp at all
times/conditions as well as not sucking horsepower, at least not
mechanically.
What I'm saying is that I need to spend $ on an after-run pump and also more
$ on the main water pump when I do the cam belt why not just combine the two
in one electric water pump.
So what is wrong with an EWP conversion???
Anyone done one??
Anyone had one/heard of one fail?
