There are two general classes of water pumps: electric powered and belt powered. Electric water pumps utilize the vehicle’s electrical current to drive the water pump motor.

When a vehicle owner arrives reporting a problem with the engine overheating, the immediate assumption is a problem with the water pump.

Before installing a new water pump, ensure that the pump does not have any manufacturing defects.

Knowing the correct sizes of the nuts and bolts needed to attach the water pump can mean the difference between a 30-minute and a four-hour project.

Performing work on the cooling system can be laborious; however, auto technicians must ensure the entire repair or replacement is completed fully.
