Intercooler Pump Question?

[HotRudyRod]

I recently up graded the turbo, fuel pump, FPR, PAC alkikit but i forgot i had hard wired the IC pump like 2 or 3 years ago when i got my Syclone so i ran the hell out like this, i rewired it back together but i think its not workin now cause i asked Todd Austin about it and he told me to look inside the IC to see any flow but all i see is vibrating water.
Do you know if the original can be rebuilt, anyone knows of an upgrade new unit?
Thanks.

HUH?

Johnsson pump...

www.detriotturbo.com and www.raceprovenmotors.com got them.

i'm guessing what you're asking is if the pump is working and if you can rebuild it... well if it is still hard wired, just turn the ignition key a few notches... (before you start the engine) if you hear the pump or can see "vibrating water/gurgling" in the IC then it shoud be working. also something you can do is replace a part of your hose line w/ clear hose from a hardware store. this will ensure you that you can see flowing water...

if not i'm sure rebuilding might not be worth it. just buy a new one.

If you are still running the stock chip by "unhard wiring" the IC, it will enable the IC pump to turn on once the coolant reaches 215 degrees. If you are running an Ultimate chip (reason you contacted Todd A.?) it will turn the IC pump on once the coolant has reached 60 degrees. Of course with the ignition "ON" and a paper clip jumpering the "A" and "B" terminals on the ALDL port, the IC pump will run so that you can view coolant flow, if any, with the truck off regardless of coolant temperature...

it will enable the IC pump to turn on once the coolant reaches 215 degrees.

just an fyi...the stock ecm constants that turn on the intercooler pump are set to trigger at a given MAT and/or Coolant temp...(that is if our fan enable constants control the i/c pump)...that being said, the stock chip will turn on the IC pump either at 84.5C (~185f) coolant temp or 45.5C (~115f) MAT.... :wink:
