[QUOTE="harper, post: 1462093, member: 88451"] Glad you made it home. That barb looks like it's corroded below the surface of the water pump cover. Are you certain that it's just pressed in? I appreciate the challenge of manufacturing a new barb and pressing it in but I think you would first have to bore out the pump cover to clean out the mating surface and make the barb oversized in the press region. Seems like a lot of work. How much does the pump cover cost and how much is your time worth? That's the question I ask myself before I start down a rabbit hole like this one. [/QUOTE]
