Signs Of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 1 - HeaderBefore purchasing and installing an engine water pump housing gasket, make sure it is the correct fit for your vehicle.
Faq - Answer 6No. Your vehicle's water pump keeps coolant moving as long as the engine is running and stops when the engine is turned off. If you want to be able to circulate coolant for a short time after the engine has been turned off, an auxiliary electric water pump is needed.
Faq - Answer 5Yes. As part of regular cooling system operation, the water pump sends hot coolant to the heater core of your engine, which transfers heat into the passenger cabin of your vehicle. If this hot coolant is unable to reach the heater core, then this heat transfer cannot occur, and your passenger compartment remains colder than you want.
Faq - Answer 4Yes. The water pump is responsible for moving coolant through your vehicle's cooling system, keeping the heat generated by your engine at acceptable levels, and helping prevent overheating. A malfunctioning water pump can cause your engine to overheat, which may result in severe and costly engine damage.
Good Maintenance Practices - Section 1 - Bullet 1Clean all excess dirt and debris from the water pump housing.
Faq - Answer 3No. Water pumps can vary greatly in size and appearance depending on the vehicle they are designed for.
Faq - Answer 2Yes. ACDelco GM Original Equipment parts are equivalent to your GM vehicle's original factory components.
Faq - Answer 1Yes. Always consult the Vehicle Owner’s manual or an expert technician before making any repairs or adjustments

Good Maintenance Practices - Section 1 - HeaderTips for Water Pump Inspection:
Faq - Question 6Does the water pump work when my vehicle is turned off?
Faq - Question 5Does the water pump affect the temperature inside the passenger compartment of my vehicle?
Signs Of Wear &#38; Troubleshooting - Section 2 - Bullet 1Leaking Coolant - Puddles of coolant under your vehicle, a constant drip or stream of coolant from the water pump's weep hole, or a constantly empty or low coolant reservoir are all signs of potential water pump wear, and may be caused by cracks in the pump, or seal or gasket failures.
Signs Of Wear &#38; Troubleshooting - Section 2 - Bullet 2Engine Overheating - If your vehicle's engine overheats, it may not be receiving the required coolant flow. Make sure that your vehicle's cooling system contains the proper level of coolant.
Good Maintenance Practices - Section 2 - Bullet 7Use sealant tabs only if recommended. Some sealant tabs or similar compounds may restrict coolant flow through the passages of some cooling systems.
