"lime deposits" ??
wtf
are you using a corrosion inhibitor ? if so what, and in what concentration ?
-> and you are using Swiftech products so you had better be using an inhibitor

how on earth do you expect your rad to function if its tubes are covered with "lime deposits" ?

jeez
try "Pinesol", or a strong cleaner with phenol

EDIT: "only just started getting warm" ??
I have not managed to be present when one of these pump heads had a (thrust bearing) failure.
I have heard that there was a brief period of noise, others said the pump just ceased pumping. ??
No one has reported the motor getting hot.
- And as I said earlier, doubt the motor can input that much heat.

Keep an eye on the pump, but suggest you clean out your system.
