[QUOTE="thill, post: 492167, member: 4972"] When you install your water pumps, do you grease everything? Are you sure you aren't spinning the impeller the wrong way when installing? Spin it backwards with no lubrication, and you can get what you see - melted plastic. Could be salt blockage, which vinegar may fix, as Dale stated, or it could be exhaust blowing the water out of the cooling system, or it could be user error, or it could be something else. if that happened in 30 seconds while the motor is in the water, that must be some kind of record.
