NOTE: To remove the water pump pulley, it MUST
first be positioned between water pump housing
and drive hub. The pulley can then be removed with
the water pump assembly.
(5) Rotate pulley until openings in pulley align
with water pump drive hub spokes (Fig. 28). Move
pulley inward between pump housing and hub (Fig.
28).
(6) Position pulley to allow access to water pump
mounting bolts. Remove water pump mounting bolts
(Fig. 29).
(7) Remove water pump with the pulley loosely
positioned between hub and the pump body.
(8) Remove and discard the seal.
(9) Clean seal groove and sealing surfaces on
pump and timing chain case cover. Take care not to
scratch or gouge sealing surfaces.
CLEANING
Clean gasket mating surfaces as necessary.
INSPECTION
Replace the water pump if it has any of the follow-
ing defects.
(1) Damage or cracks on the pump body.
(2) Coolant leaks; this will be evident by a wet
stream of coolant running down the pump body and
components below. A thin stain below the weep hole
reservoir slot (Fig. 30) is considered normal opera-
tion.
(3) Impeller rubs inside of chain case cover.
(4) Excessively loose or rough turning bearing.
NOTE: A weepage stain that is black, brown, or grey
is considered normal, if it is dry. If the weep
appears wet; pressure test the cooling system at15±18 psi and observe the weep area. If weep area
remains unchanged, do not replace the water pump
for this condition. Replace the water pump, if a
steady flow of engine coolant is evident from the
weep hole/reservoir slot (Fig. 30) (shaft seal failure).
Be sure to perform a thorough analysis before
replacing water pump.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install new seal into water pump housing
groove (Fig. 31).
NOTE: The water pump pulley MUST be positioned
loosely between the pump housing and drive hub
BEFORE water pump installation.

(b) If oil pump volume is within specification, a
possible restriction in the cooler lines or cooler has
occurred.
(c) If oil pump volume is not within specification,
possible internal transmission restrictions, compo-
nent wear or damage has occurred. (Refer to 21 -

(d) If an oil cooler restriction is suspected, per-
form further inspections and flow meter testing by
isolating components (i.e. lines, coolers).
(e) After a restriction is isolated, perform cooler
flush procedure. (Refer to 7 - COOLING/TRANS-
MISSION - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
(f) Re-test cooler flow. If cooler flow does not
exceed minimum specification, replace compo-
nent(s) as necessary.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - FLUSHING
COOLERS AND TUBES
The recommended procedure for cooler flushing is
to use Tool 6906 Cooler Flusher.
WARNING:
WEAR PROTECTIVE EYEWEAR THAT MEETS THE
REQUIREMENTS OF OSHA AND ANSI Z87.1±1968.
WEAR STANDARD INDUSTRIAL RUBBER GLOVES.
KEEP LIGHTED CIGARETTES, SPARKS, FLAMES,
AND OTHER IGNITION SOURCES AWAY FROM THE
AREA TO PREVENT THE IGNITION OF COMBUSTI-
BLE LIQUIDS AND GASES. KEEP A CLASS (B) FIRE
EXTINGUISHER IN THE AREA WHERE THE
FLUSHER WILL BE USED.
KEEP THE AREA WELL VENTILATED.
DO NOT LET FLUSHING SOLVENT COME IN CON-
TACT WITH YOUR EYES OR SKIN: IF EYE CONTAM-
INATION OCCURS, FLUSH EYES WITH WATER FOR15 TO 20 SECONDS. REMOVE CONTAMINATED
CLOTHING AND WASH AFFECTED SKIN WITH
SOAP AND WATER. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.
(1) Remove cover plate filler plug on Tool 6906.
Fill reservoir 1/2 to 3/4 full of fresh flushing solution.
Use MopartTransmission Cooler Flush (MS-552) or
equivalent solution conforming to MS-552. Flushing
solvents are petroleum based solutions generally
used to clean automatic transmission components.
DO NOTuse solvents containing acids, water, gaso-
line, or any other corrosive liquids.
(2) Reinstall filler plug on Tool 6906.
(3) Verify pump power switch is turned OFF. Con-
nect red alligator clip to positive (+) battery post.
Connect black (-) alligator clip to a good ground.
NOTE: When flushing transmission cooler and
lines, ALWAYS reverse flush.
(4) Connect the BLUE pressure line to the OUT-
LET (From) cooler line.
(5) Connect the CLEAR return line to the INLET
(To) cooler line
(6) Turn pump ON for two to three minutes to
flush cooler and lines.
(7) Turn pump OFF.
(8) Disconnect CLEAR suction line from reservoir
at cover plate. Disconnect CLEAR return line at
cover plate, and place it in a drain pan.
(9) Turn pump ON for 30 seconds to purge flush-
ing solution from cooler and lines. Turn pump OFF.
(10) Place CLEAR suction line into a one quart
container of MopartATF+4 (Automatic Transmission
FluidÐType 9602).
(11) Turn pump ON until all transmission fluid is
removed from the one quart container and lines. This
purges any residual cleaning solvent from the trans-
mission cooler and lines. Turn pump OFF.
(12) Disconnect alligator clips from battery. Recon-
nect flusher lines to cover plate, and remove flushing
adapters from cooler lines.
