I read somewhere that you can buy 'water pump lube' at the auto parts store, add directly the radiator.

According to the article, years ago, antifreese came with the lube already added.

Tried the water pump lube and seal rejuventor. Week later forced to change the pump. It did nothing to help. Bite the bullet and change the pump because some of these "miracle" fixes are just snake oil! Are you certain it is the pump. Try running the motor without the belt and then you can hear if it is the pump or something else.
