I remember when Saab was shutting down and supplies of parts became problematic, I grabbed the first new water pump I could buy, anywhere. Then I started hearing all the bad news on these HEPU pumps - so it just sits as a spare, if I get in a bind.
Meanwhile, I have an NG 900 with 200,000, and 9-5s with 92,000, 142,000, 185,000 and 220,000 miles and all are still on there original water pumps. Is there something about being Down South that makes a water pump last longer? Or is it so much Highway Miles? Anyway, when I start replacing these pumps, I will have the best pumps I can find at the ready. Our time and our sweat are worth something - I see no point in putting in an unreliable part (except in an emergency).
