Default Re: Water Pump Woes

Combining materials in a liquid gives you movement of electrons and something gets eaten up if your unlucky.
Your stainless bolt will survive but the block might not...
Best is if all is the same and proper coolant with rustinhibitor.
It might work out just fine with the stainless to.
But if the bolt that kept it in place for many years did the work why change it just seal up the threads.
