Just a quick question. I will be mounting my WP136S soon. The info with the pump doesn't mention anything about how to mount it. I want to put it on the subframe or rad bracket where the old rad was. Do I need to mount it through rubber mounts or can I solid mount it onto something like the subframe?

i just drilled 2 holes on the side of the subframe where it has a lip going up and bolted it through there, no rubber mounts |

Cheers Matty. Whatever I make would probably look better after it gets bent to shit . I'll probably use steel too as I don't have any ally knocking about On 12th Nov, 2009 Paul S said:

Mine is on all the time, however knowing what I know now this may not be the most efficient way to do it.

i was contemplating using the Davies Craig controller with it however i think i am going to run it with a 82 degree stat plumb the heater outlet to the turbo then heater to thermostat housing as the bypass i have it dry decked and have an Audi 80 radiator to front mount inside the bmw intercooler in the front of my clubby estate. i'm at the point where i'm ready to drop the engine in and make all the pipework up but this bloody virus means i cant get to the car as were all in lockdown

I’m pretty sure you can’t use a stat with the electric pump ? Hence the use of the controller to regulate temperature.

from the reading i did last night (under the influence) as long as the pump is not pumping against a closed stat without a bypass which i proposed as the heater outlet on the head to turbo feed to heater and thermostat housing post stat the stat would still function as it should this coupled with a fan controller set as off at 85 degrees on at 95 should regulate it without the need for an expensive controller?

The controller works well for me, I like how the pump and fan runs on after switch off if the motor is still hot to help ease heat soak. And with the front mount rad it never goes over what ever temp I set the controller at even when used on track, which the car is mostly used for. |

Nice one Burcy. i met you at castle combe a few years ago with the crewes missiles you camped up with us.mine was the orange thing with the teeth that wouldnt keep fluids in the engine ! Thing is ive got the Mezeire pump as i didnt like the design of the davies craig ones but dont think anyone using this pump controls it in any other way than off and on. Outside the box |

That should be possible as they have many a user output but i'm not sure how confident i would be in my computing skills its not word excel or power point ......

I have a thermostat, but it has a couple of extra holes in it so that it is not pumping against a closed circuit.

If you have a bypass it will do the same, hopefully the turbo will be enough of a restriction so everything doesn’t go that way. Could the Davies Craig controller be used with this pump? Roy makes a good point, I have a heated rear window timer relay that always me to switch on the pump to leave it running after switch off |

I just have mine wired up with a two step toggle switch. first step is water pump 2nd turns the fan on aswel. I just leave them on for a minute or two after I turn the engine off. it soon looses heat. it's good for the turbo aswel as it's water cooled. Edited by JT on 1st Apr, 2020. My build thread..

As per Nic's previous comment, one of these could be made to work very easily to provide run on for the pump.
