Default Electric water pump

Hello,
Haven't been here for a while, had an interesting read on the "For Sale" page Being summer i noticed something about the electric water pump on my 460. When the car was bought, it use to buzz a lot louder than it does now. I'm just not sure whether the ecu alters the voltage supply to the pump according to the engine temp. I read in the service book that if the coolant temp. is above 84 degrees after the engine is switched off then for 5 minutes it operates (but max. for 20 mins.) I haven't had time to check it by supplying it power off the battery (cleaned the connections which were already clean) but it works a bit sluggishly. Anyone else experienced the same? Don't want to drain the coolant if i don't have to
Thanks
