Coupe was in the garage for Cambelt and Water pump change.

Below is a pic of the old and new water pump!

Unbelievable that it didn’t overheat on the hour and a half drive to the garage.

Makes you wonder where all the plastic bits are. Hopefully they got ground into tiny pieces and aren't blocking anything important...

Ignorance is bliss!

I’d rather not think about it, but it’s running ok. Touch wood!

Surprised anyone is still fitting the plastic water pumps to Fiats or Alfas, has been known for 15-20 years that they're garbage.

That’s not good, the replacement looks plastic as well!
