Technical Is the water pump for the 899 engine rebuildable?

[Mefistofele]

As far as I can see, the coolant pump for the Cinquecento 900 is exactly the same as the one used in the Fiat 127/Panda 903 engines. Back in the day those water pumps used to be repairable.

The pump in my car (1995 Cinquecento 900) even has a sort of lid with four screws at the back. I think I can find a Fiat 127 rebuild kit quite cheaply. What do you think?

Many thanks for your time.

I think I’d give it a go anyway…but that’s just me

I wouldn't bother as it's a cheap part and if it lets go you will know about it when you cook the engine

As CCs were produced in Poland, we have lots of them still on the roads. So there are spare parts available

I've found a list of models which should have the same water pump as the 899 cinquecento.

I've even saw some parts for the pump, like washers and orings. Perhaps there are repair kits. If you could give me the pump part number, or the kit number, I could check in a few places

That's handy to know, I've an old pump in the shed, will check it tomorrow for numbers as they are getting harder to get.

I was thinking about ePER or another catalogue. But yes, those should be marked on the pump, too
