If it washes the grease out of the bearings it will rumble.

Probably would make a noise i guess. When mine went it was squirting out water from around the pump upon removal and spinning it, it was very rough. Replaced it with a brand new one and bang on...

Bullseye224: For a new pump ill try Matt Lewis in Walsall do a search and you'll get his number

Woodford also sell the Gen ford ones. Double check the inlets and and outlets are clear as one of mine wasn't drilled out in a brand new Ford pump!

Mine also leaked btw so had to be changed.
