Description
When you notice coolant puddling under your Massey Ferguson or hear that telltale squealing from a failing water pump bearing, don’t wait for complete failure. A failing water pump doesn’t just risk overheating; it can cause catastrophic engine damage that costs thousands to repair. This repair kit gives you all the seals and gaskets needed to rebuild your existing pump housing and get back to reliable cooling.
What You’re Getting
- Complete seal and gasket set for proper water pump rebuilding
- Quality seals designed for the Perkins 4.318 engine’s operating temperatures
- Always use new seals and gaskets during assembly. The mechanical seal is critical – don’t reuse even if it looks okay.
- Everything needed to stop coolant leaks and restore proper circulation
Built for Real Farm Work
Your 285, 298, 595, or 698 Massey Ferguson with the reliable Perkins 4.318 engine handles everything from hay cutting to loader work. These mid-size tractors are workhorses on farms where uptime matters, and these engines are known for reliability, but they generate serious heat under load. This kit restores the cooling system’s ability to handle those demanding jobs.
Made to Last
Quality seals and bearings provide long-term durability. These aren’t automotive parts adapted for tractor use—they’re engineered specifically for agricultural applications where pumps run continuously under varying loads and temperatures.
Good to Know
When rebuilding, inspect everything carefully. A new seal won’t fix a bent shaft or worn impeller. Check shaft runout with a dial indicator – any wobble means replacement. Consider replacing the thermostat while you’re working on the cooling system. A properly rebuilt pump should give another 20+ years of service.
