water pump while removing pump from vehicle. Do
not remove the clamp from the bypass hose.
(9) Discard the old gasket.
CAUTION: Do not pry the water pump at timing
chain case/cover. The machined surfaces may be
damaged resulting in leaks.
CLEANING
Clean gasket mating surfaces as necessary.
INSPECTION
Visually inspect the water pump and replace if it
has any of the following conditions:
• The body is cracked or damaged
• Water leaks from the shaft seal. This is evident
by traces of coolant below the vent hole
• Loose or rough turning bearing.
• Impeller rubbing the pump body
INSTALLATION
(1) Clean the gasket mating surfaces.
(2) Using a new gasket, install the water pump to
the engine as follows: Guide the water pump tube
into the bypass hose as the pump is being installed.
Install the water pump bolts (Fig. 43). Tighten the
water pump mounting bolts to 40 N·m (30 ft. lbs.)
torque.
(3) Position the bypass hose clamp to the bypass
hose.
(4) Spin the water pump to be sure that the pump
impeller does not rub against the timing chain case/
cover.
(5) Install a new o-ring to the heater hose coolant
return tube (Fig. 42). Coat the new o-ring with anti-
freeze before installation.
Typical
(6) Install the coolant return tube and its mount-
ing bolt to the engine (Fig. 42). Be sure the slot in
the tube bracket is bottomed to mounting bolt. This
will properly position return tube.
(7) Connect the radiator lower hose to the water
pump.
(8) Connect the heater hose and hose clamp to the
coolant return tube.
(9) Install drive belt (Refer to 7 - COOLING/AC-
CESSORY DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS - INSTALLATION)
(Fig. 41).
(10) Install the fan (Refer to 7 - COOLING/EN-
GINE/RADIATOR FAN - INSTALLATION)
(11) Fill cooling system (Refer to 7 - COOLING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE).
(12) Connect negative battery cable.
(13) Start and warm the engine. Check for leaks.
WATER PUMP - 3.7L/4.7L
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION—WATER PUMP
A centrifugal
water
through the water jackets, passages, intake manifold,
radiator core, cooling system hoses and heater core.
The pump is driven from the engine crankshaft by a
single serpentine drive belt.
The water pump impeller is pressed onto the rear
of a shaft that rotates in bearings pressed into the
housing. The housing has two small holes to allow
seepage to escape. The water pump seals are lubri-
cated by the antifreeze in the coolant mixture. No
additional lubrication is necessary.
Both heater hoses are connected to fittings on the
timing chain front cover. The water pump is also
mounted directly to the timing chain cover and is
equipped with a non serviceable integral pulley (Fig.
44).
DESCRIPTION—WATER PUMP BYPASS
The 3.7L and 4.7L engine uses an internal water/
coolant bypass system. The design uses galleries in
the timing chain cover to circulate coolant during
engine warm-up preventing the coolant from flowing
through the radiator. The thermostat uses a stub
shaft located at the rear of the thermostat (Fig. 45)
to control flow through the bypass gallery.
