I got a water pump problem

I hammered out the propeller to install an electric water pump, but when I did two of the smaller metal tubes came loose. What do I use to re seal them in the pump. thanks

Re: I got a water pump problem

Use some "right stuff" and let it sit for a bit. My car was on the dyno and it spit out one of those hard tubes that come out of the water pump housing. We used some right stuff and its been fine ever since. Of course I have a 160* thermostat and a CSR EWP so the unit doesnt get _that_ hot which may help.
