Water Pump Brand

I replaced my water pump about 2 years ago with one from Pep Boys (can't remember what brand). It is going bad again (leaking from weep hole) so I need to replace it. What is the best brand that will last longer than 2 years?

Bosch from Pep Boys
Masterpro from O'Reilly's
Duralast from Autozone

All are the same price and have lifetime warranties.

Thanks in advance!

Get something from NAPA or GM.

having the proper amount of coolant in your system will ensure you will have no coolant componet issues ...you will need 2.5 gallons of coolant / antifreeze ...use this with the distilled water ...

total capacity is 4.5gallons....

just buy the lifetime warrantee pump" NEW NOT REBUILT "....that has the lowest price ...

Re: Water Pump Brand

I replace pumps all the time and have warrantied all of them at one point or another, but i have found napa or federated to be some of the best.

I hope you don't replace them all the time on the same vehicle?

Re: Water Pump Brand

Yeah, I will definitely get the new pump. I guess I'll take a chance on either pump since they all have lifetime warranties. Thanks.
