85 Interstate Water pump rebuild
Billy;
It is questionable whether it is worth while rebuilding a water pump. I have heard that there are kits available to rebuild them, but I don't believe they contain the shaft, which is quite perishable on the gl1200. Consider a new pump element, and all advice I have heard would say consider OEM not aftermarket since the aftermarket pump element is made in India and of rather questionable quality. That being said there is at least one member of this forum who used an aftermarket pump and last I heard it worked. (There was an issue with the O ring seal but that was solved)
