Mercury,Cougar,1999,122k miles, v6 2.5.
I just got my water pump repaired a month ago and its starting to leak coolant again. Am pretty sure is coming from the water pump bearing since its very visible. It was a remanufactured pump so i did not espect much of it. But one month? thank god it was cheap but i want to know how do i get a real water pump for heavy use?
Thank you for listening.

they dont make a heavy duy pump , but you did buy a reman which is rebuilt, try a new one next time, besides the dealer i have had good luck with most napa parts , if you know someone with a cooling system pressure tester have that done to verify the water pump failure before you replace it again

thanks
