I remember some one was thinking about sticking a pump in the heater line to cool the engine after shutdown,

I saw a guy flogging "intercooler pumps" on ebay for 45 quid each, 19mm inlets and outlets should do the trick if any one still needs one.

My water pump is from a Renault Savanna turbo diesel, it is located up on the bulkhead on the renault.

It pumps 28 litres a minute draws very little current and only cost me ?3 from the scrappy. It is a Bosch.

It keeps my engine cool along with a front radiator.

Do you reckon it would be fine on a road car jon? I've been thinking about it for a while now but didnt think you'd be able to get one that would take running constantly and last a long time. It would be nice to keep the water circulating after shutdown though.

I can't see why it won't work..my engine has never run cooler than it does now, even on tickover it stays at 65....

I won't go back to a mechanical pump and fan now, and a gain in power!

cool, might go scrappy ratting soon then and see what i can find. I'm already running a mutro front rad and no mech fan.

Don't suppose you know if the renault just ran the leccy pump on its own or was it using a mechanical one aswell?

Renault 19 16v use these electric water pumps as well. I think that they used them just as a supplementary thing to circulate water for a time after the engine had been switched off.

I ran an ellecy pump with a Metro Turbo front rad and it was fine. I had the pump run by a control box to regulate its speed, this helped to control engine temp.
