A crack in your oil pump shouldn't make the fluid milky. Water mixed with oil will look milky so I suspect you have a cracked block or blown head gasket.

Polaris 2000 x plorer ATV the crankcase oil keeps turning milky grey is this water getting in from cooling system if so is it from the barrel or is it the water pump seal which is the likely culprit?
It can be from 4 different sources. Your head gasket, crack in the head, crack in the piston cylinder (block), or the water pump seals. You can pressure test the head to eliminate the head gasket, but the only way to be for sure that is not a crack is to tear it down. On my LTZ400 there is a drain plug which will allow you to determine if there is a fluid exchange between the water pump oil gasket and water gasket. If this drain is dry then it can be only one of the other 3 choices.

can you fix a leaking car water pump Yes you can fix it..If the water pump gasket is leaking then remove the pump and replace the gasket,if the pump itself is leaking from either a crack in the housing or from around the pumps shaft then remove and replace the pump with a new one... Fixing the pump itself is not something that is easly done by the average person....if the leak is from a crack in the water pumps housing then each end of the crack must be drilled to stop it from progressing any farther,then the entire crack must be welded,soildered,brazed ect depending on what type of metal the pump is made from... If the pump is leaking from around the shaft then the impeller and shaft must be removed and the bushings,bearings and seals replaced..this requires the use of a bearing press...

How do you prime a windshield washer pump?
If you have a newer vehicle with a pump motor at the bottom of the reservoir the head pressure of the washer fluid above the pump will prime the pump. If this is not working then you may have a bad pump or some form of debris is blocking the inlet. Some older vehicles had a pump that was mounted above the reservoir fluid level and a stand pipe that would siphon the fluid and these could crack, fall off, get plugged or blocked the same as the above pump inlet. If you can hear the pump motor working (e.g. a whining sound) and the water level is not going down, check the inlet for debris or check the stand pipe (older vehicles). I have seen, only once, where the outlet from the pump was pinched and not allowing fluid to pass. I suspect that the pump was leaking internally though because they are positive displacement pumps and will usually burn out or blow the discharge tube of the end.
