nightwalkerancestery Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 If you're asking what brand of water pump, I always try to go OEM. I'd say just go with a good brand name rather than Napa brand or advance/AutoZone brand. - Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg23 Posted March 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 I'll have to send him an e-mail I didn't see one on his site. I also need to see if he has the hose that goes the PCV valve. Mine calcified and breaks off like brittle plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott87star Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 I've had good luck with both the OEM and generic rebuilt ones from the auto parts store, never had one go bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwalkerancestery Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 I'm with Scott. Though I try to stick with OE or OEM, I'm still guilty of going cheap and not once have I ever had one go bad on me (knock on wood). With my luck I'll have one go out on my way home. Hahah. - Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malykaii Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 I am fairly sure GMB is OE. Cant find solid proof yet. They are the OE for dsm water pumps. They are also the oem for all the hyundai elantra timing bearings and pump on my sister's car. If hyundai and mitsu trust the brand, I'll say good enough, even if they arn't the OES for this particular aplication. Available on eBay last I checked.

Malykaii Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Don't go cheap on these cars. Get oem or near equivalent. Especially when a GMB or other decent brand is like 15$ more than a parts store brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
