Water Pump: Description and Operation






GAS ENGINE










The water pump (3) on the world engine is attached to the water pump adapter on the front of the cylinder block.

The water pump is driven by the accessory drive belt. The water pump is connected to the water plenum by the return tube.

Turbocharger equipped engines use a smaller diameter water pump pulley then the naturally aspirated engine. This allows increased coolant flow without pump cavation.
