From my encounters with seized smog pumps, BUY THE REMANUFACTURED PUMP
(or a new one if your pockets are deep enough). I was on the way to
take finals when my first pump seized. It was on the highway and the
screech it made! Stopped the car, popped the hood in time to see my
$30 serpentine belt melt to the mucho hot pulley. I wasn't that far
away from the college, so I removed the belt and continued driving.
You might not want to leave fate in the hands of WD-40 on a bad
bearing or a cleaned-off junkyard part, but of course YMMV.

Hope this helps.
