Hi Jan,
Sounds like you got a defective water pump from IAP. I would double check
and make sure the water isn't coming from anywhere else and then contact IAP.
They should make it good.

Subject: [alfa] 1750 waterpump
(1750 engine in 1971 2000 spider)
replacement 10 year old pump bearing went (major bearing noise and
wobble of pump shaft - pulley) and made a nice spray flinging off the pulley
nice new made in italy pump for "cheap" from IAP - needed to wait to get
(difficult) one 45mm M6 stud because the boss between heater and recirc
spigots was not faced to 35mm
so after cleaning engine and touching up detail, careful priming etc...
surprise - new pump from get-go is also flinging nice spray - admittedly
it is a higher quality "finer" dispersion, however - very depressing
any ideas?
