Not to mention, cooling the radiator won't help at all, considering it's the water pump that failed. On Thu, 13 Sep 2001, Chris Luke wrote:

Not so much to clean it, but to act as once-through heat transfer to cool the engine. I hope you can get it going again.The radiator yes. Just try not to get the engine block too wet. Rapid cooling of a hot engine can cause the metalwork to fatigue quickly, at worst, or warp it at best. :( I know someone who managed to crack a piston shaft this way once on a regular engine.
