    USA Non Honda water pump kit

    Getting a water pump kit put in a 200hp ( 2004) ant a non-Honda dealer. I've changed water pumps and I figured that almost any good dealer could change a water pump. My question is: I told them I wanted Honda parts, and they said that they didn't know if they could get them. I told them I would get the parts and deliver them. They normally use Sierra parts. If they ignore my request and just say they put in Honda parts and really put in Sierra parts. How much trouble am I going to be in?

    None if you don’t melt down the engine. Just keep an eye on your water pressure, if it drops off or you don’t have any shut the engine down before you get it too hot!
    Then see why and install or make sure to install the pump correctly or replace the junk one for a Honda one.
