M Marki New member May 4, 2013 #1 Hi Guys. The new seal for the water pump on my '98 EC250 has arrived but the previous owner had removed the old one and I'm not sure which way around it goes. Does the sprung face go towards the impeller or towards the bearing? Attachments DSCF0158 (Small).JPG 27.8 KB · Views: 17 DSCF0159 (Small).JPG 23.2 KB · Views: 22
