Re: I haven't ever seen this happen. Water pump story
My response after reading your post was going to be "Count your friend lucky that it didn't take out the radiator". Then I read all the posts and now you know he was lucky. Just the pump, no other damage. I guess the seal was still good
The old saying, "Chrome won't get you home", sure played out here
