Re: ’60s Johnson water pump – Freeze Damage

[John]

Thanks Pap, that was my "Plan B" – – – straighten it all out and fill the voids with
epoxy putty, lap it all down flat n flush and on to the next step.
I just wanted to make sure that the voids were not designed for some specific reason
like for water flow, cooling or siphoning, etc etc etc.
All in all, it will be a jam up motor. New water pump, impeller and shaft seal and will be able to
crank it over. The carb is soaking in parts cleaner. It is very clean on the inside.
Thankssssssssssss

and I would suggest if you live in Minnesota or North Dakota, get all the water out prior to winter storage.
