Noisey afterrun coolant pump

I think I've read postings about taking the pump off and putting it in a
bucket of water with 12 volts applied so you can test its effectiveness.  I
also think the consensus has been that when it fails, there's no successful
repair.  A couple years ago, there was a bunch of traffic about using
Shogun pumps as a replacement.  That might even be on SJM's website
somewhere.   In the end, Shogun quit making the pumps that worked for our
cars.  I've not read about anybody else's product as a replacement.
