Help please
They came yesterday to tweak my 600, unfortunately when accelerating
there is hesitations. I was told it was a cooling pump, i/c pump, and yet
I am sure I had a new one fitted about a year ago, that if it was the right
pump. I was told to take the engine cover off , take it on a hard drive, and
see if some silver plates at the bottom of the windscreen get hot. any ideas.
thanks

It sounds like your totally incompetent service technician wants to see if your IC pipes get hot....do they not have the diagnostics to check this?

Thre two aluminium boxes at the back of the engine must be coolers, and when I drive it
Hard they get very hot. I had a new pump 18 months ago. Perhaps an uprated pump is
Required, maybe rentech.d

Thanks, will a Johnson pump fit straight on without modifications. Is the
65 pump the same as the 600. I have been told you should be able to
touch the intercoolers as they don't get that hot, but mine are scolding
hot, any ideas.
