Have a 19/32” x 43” belt installed. Please help I have 4 young kiddos ready to take this bad boy for a ride. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,888 Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) | | Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,888 | Have you tried to turn the fan with the belt removed? Chances are the water pump is locked up. I'm 40 miles north of you, and I've got several 216 pumps if you want to try another one before you buy a replacement.

Thank you so much for the offer on using a pump. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,888 Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) | | Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,888 | The fan and pump should spin freely. You need to change the water pump. Make a couple more posts and you will be able to use the private message function of the site.
