Help with yanmar y177 ?

[California]

Ok I have a y177 that my dad picked up several yrs ago, the water pump has gone out on it and need to get it replaced.... for some reason i cant find parts for the little thing anywhere, I cant even find a y177 on google ...

I was looking for something else, and found an old thread on here that at least mentions YM177. They seem to be pretty rare.

They are very rare. I would say there was only a few hundred imported at the the most, just from the lack of info there is on them!

Here are a couple photos of the 177 water pump. My brother (Stealthrogue) and I took it off so we could try to find a used one or rebuild this one for the tractor. I'm not sure if it's rebuild-able as it had a lot of sediment that came out of it and the ports seem to be eaten away some. What do you all think?
Notice it has a small water port at the top that hooks to a temp gauge, I guess.
This looks identical to the 2200 water pump but the 2200 doesn't have the port at the top.

*Note. This pump still has the mounting bracket attached so the two extra bolts holes at the top are for the mounting bracket. We can't get it off as the bolts broke and will need to be drilled out. :-(

If you can locate 1 .I would just replace it than try to rebuild.Good luck !

Thanks @kenmac. That's what I am thinking, hard to locate though. Hoye doesn't have one. Sent a message to BrokenTractor and will see what they have.

I have had real old antique water pumps rebuilt for trucks and tractors. I used to do my own fixing stuff on the farm and you would be surprised at the interchangeability of parts its just a bearing and a seal.

Those guys know what they are doing so dont worry send it in and get a quote. I imagine that if Yanmar pumps can be rebuilt some other kit will fit yours. That pump looks suspiciously like whats on mine fwtw so its likely common parts with some others.

Thanks guys. :thumbsup: I think I will send it to Hoye and let them try. It looks very close to the 2200 so I'm sure the bearing will fit. Or if not then if the 2200 has the same bolt pattern I can have the small port at top drilled and threaded to fit the port for the temperature gauge. I will post how it goes for you all.
