New water pump, gasket glued, double checked, all o-rings and housing to plate o-ring placement. Hooked garden hose to water tube, no leaks from tube, after 10 sec. or so block filled and water gushed out of normal area on mid. No water pressure indicated. (guage tested ok) It has the 2.6 heads.... I pulled the thermostat cover and found no thermostats in plastic housing,Just the plastic housing screwed to the diaphram, and no thermo seats or grommet.. seems obvious, but would the lack of these items cause no water pressure? Initially before i pulled the lower back off to re check pump, I put a clear hose on the pressure nipple and water came out of it but if i raised it the water leveled off at about even with the flywheel. Any comments would be appreciated, Thanks.
