    Electric Waterpump

     



    are these new electric waterpumps reliable enough to use on the street? i have heard of ppl have trouble with them burning out premature.

    Although there are probably a lot of them on the street, I have read that they are not really suited for street use or everyday use. I believe there was an article on cooling in a recent magazine where manufacturers of cooling systems responded to quesitons on the subject. One of the questions wass on the electric pumps. I have to look to see where the article was.

    from what i understand they only last for a limited duration, i.e., for race use.
    you run the car on the drag strip on the battery or less motor load on the track.
