Wedge TR8 Air Pump?!

I want to confirm that the item above the Alternator on a non AC tr8 is the Water pump? Mine is starting to get a little loud, and I was thinking about replacing it. But want to make sure that is indeed the water pump. I feel the noise is coming from the pully. Which is above the alternator.

I believe it is the Air Pump. Any ideas where I can find a new one. I see Vicky's does not carry them.


Thanks!

Re: TR8 Water Pump?!

That was my next question! I do not think I need it, so how do I go about disconnecting it?! There are no vechicle inspections on Antique Cars in KY!


Thanks!
