Sounds like there is a case for cleaning coolant tanks before the sludge
builds up to the 1/2 mark!
Say it ain't so!

Ahm wunnerin what worn impeller would look like!
Could also be loose on the shaft, but would proly make a noise, as

About 1/2 - 1/3 the dia of the original, with rounded edges and worn off
blades. Many, many coolant pumps use _plastic_ impellers. But even steel
impellers will wear over time if it pumps many chips and fines.

I like Brinkmann pumps, all cast iron, with a cast, screw impeller,
generous opening, and will pump chips without a problem. We have filters
that will take out the chips and fines before it reaches the actual
machine passages.

You can't 'idiot proof' anything....every time you try, they just make
better idiots.
