Hi guys, new here and may seem a bit cheeky as its my first post asking a technical question......... BUT....... im at my wits end with this DT. Got it a couple of weeks ago and was told the water pump has gone. Thought " nae bother ", but it wasnt to be. How the hell does it come out ? Ive got a spare complete bottom end, with a working water pump in it, and thought it would be an easy swap over. Im not using the spare engine though as the gearbox is humped. Please please help this noob out.
Welcome to the site, I have no idea how you would do that but someone will plus someone posting on this will bump it to the top so maybe someone else will notice :D Hope you get it sorted buddy.
anyway swapping the engine is a big job for some one that is not mechanically minded and doesnt have a clue what there doing? also im sure that if its just the water pump u need theres no need to change the whole bottom end
oh and its easy to do go to yammaha and order a new clutch gasket and water pump seal and gasket drain all colant etc oil undo ll the cross head bolts around the clutch caseing remove the kick start on the back side of the clutch caseing the is a little plastic cog for the water pump remove the c clip remove the shaft replace the seal and re asemble it
the pump is built into the clutch case., its driven my a plasic cog, from the main crank shaft. u will need to take the clutch cover completely off.
Look in side and will see the plasic cog for the water impeller. a small clip holds the cog to the shaft, u undo this and pull the impellar out. Then u see a small rubber seal. This one would need replacing.
