I set up an overdrive pulley on my 1.9D water pump. Used a smaller cast iron pulley from
a gas engine Rabbit and modified it to fit in-line with the crank pulley. About 10-20%
smaller than the original, so make the pump spin that much faster. Made about a 1/2 notch
difference in operating temps per the factory temp gauge.
