That is impressive.  I do have to point out that on my '81 Westy, I have never had to replace
the water pump.  My van has been all the way across Canada in both directions, to Alaska, Key
West, LA (where it lived for many years), and, I believe, to 45 of the lower 48.  Been to
Mexico, too.  She has never left anyone stranded in all that time.  Just think how reliable she
could have been if she had a water cooled engine.
