2002 DODGE RAM engine

Remove the fan/fan drive assembly from water pump
by turning the mounting nut counterclockwise (as
viewed from front). Threads on the fan drive are
RIGHT-HAND.A Snap-On 36 MM Fan Wrench
(number SP346 from Snap-On Cummins Diesel Tool
Set number 2017DSP) can be used with Special Tool
6958 Spanner Wrench and Adapter Pins 8346 (Fig.
54) to prevent the pulley from rotating.
(7) If water pump is being replaced, do not unbolt
fan blade assembly (Fig. 55) from the thermal control
fan drive.
(8) Remove fan blade/fan drive and fan shroud as
an assembly from vehicle.
After removing fan blade/fan drive assembly,do
notplace the thermal viscous fan drive in the hori-
zontal position. If stored horizontally, the silicone
fluid in the viscous drive could drain into its bearing
assembly and contaminate the bearing lubricant.
(9) Remove accessory drive belt (Refer to 7 -
COOLING/ACCESSORY DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS -
REMOVAL) (Fig. 56).
(10) Remove the radiator lower hose at water
pump.
(11) Remove heater hose at water pump fitting.
(12) Remove the seven water pump mounting bolts
(Fig. 57).
(13) Loosen the clamp at the water pump end of
bypass hose. Slip the bypass hose from the waterpump while removing pump from vehicle. Do not
remove the clamp from the bypass hose.
(14) Discard the water pump-to-timing chain/case
cover o-ring seal (Fig. 58).

(15) Remove the heater hose fitting from water
pump if pump replacement is necessary. Note posi-
tion (direction) of fitting before removal. Fitting must
be re-installed to same position.
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:
²The body is cracked or damaged
²Water leaks from the shaft seal. This is evident
by traces of coolant below the vent hole
²Loose or rough turning bearing. Also inspect
thermal fan drive
²Impeller rubbing the pump body
INSTALLATION
(1) If water pump is being replaced, install the
heater hose fitting to the pump. Tighten fitting to 16
N´m (144 in. lbs.) torque. After fitting has been
torqued, position fitting as shown in (Fig. 59). When
positioning fitting, do not back off (rotate counter-
clockwise). Use a sealant on the fitting such as
MopartThread Sealant With Teflon. Refer to the
directions on the package.
CAUTION: This heater hose fitting must be installed
to pump before pump is installed to engine.
(2) Clean the o-ring mating surfaces at rear of
water pump and front of timing chain/case cover.
(3) Apply a small amount of petroleum jelly to
o-ring (Fig. 58). This will help retain o-ring to water
pump.

(4) Install water pump to engine as follows: Guide
water pump fitting into bypass hose as pump is being
installed. Install water pump bolts (Fig. 57). Tighten
water pump mounting bolts to 40 N´m (30 ft. lbs.)
torque.
(5) Position bypass hose clamp to bypass hose.
(6) Spin water pump to be sure that pump impel-
ler does not rub against timing chain case/cover.
(7) Connect radiator lower hose to water pump.
(8) Connect heater hose and hose clamp to heater
hose fitting.
(9) Install drive belt (Refer to 7 - COOLING/AC-
CESSORY DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS - INSTALLATION)
(Fig. 56).
(10) Position fan shroud and fan blade/viscous fan
drive assembly to vehicle as a complete unit.
(11) Install fan shroud to radiator. Tighten bolts to
6 N´m (50 in. lbs.) torque.
(12) Install fan blade/viscous fan drive assembly to
water pump shaft.
(13) Fill cooling system (Refer to 7 - COOLING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE).
(14) Connect negative battery cable.
(15) Start and warm the engine. Check for leaks.
WATER PUMP - 5.9L DIESEL
DESCRIPTION
The water pump is mounted to the engine front
cover between the automatic belt tensioner and the
fan drive pulley (Fig. 60).
The water pump impeller is pressed onto the rear
of a shaft that rotates in a bearing pressed into the
water pump body. The body has a small hole for ven-
tilation. The water pump seals are lubricated by
antifreeze in the coolant mixture. Additional lubrica-
tion is not necessary.
OPERATION
The diesel engine water pump draws coolant from
radiator outlet and circulates it through engine,
heater core and back to radiator inlet. The crank-
shaft pulley drives the water pump with a serpentine
drive belt (Fig. 60).
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTINGÐWATER PUMP
A quick test to determine if pump is working is to
check if heater warms properly. A defective water
pump will not be able to circulate heated coolant
through the long heater hose to the heater core.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect battery negative cables.
(2) Drain cooling system (Refer to 7 - COOLING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE).(3) Remove the bolt retaining the wiring harness
near the top of water pump. Position wire harness to
the side.
(4) Remove the accessory drive belt (Refer to 7 -
COOLING/ACCESSORY DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS -
REMOVAL).
(5) Remove water pump mounting bolts (Fig. 61).
(6) Clean water pump sealing surface on cylinder
block.
CLEANING
Clean gasket mating surfaces as necessary.
INSPECTION
Visually inspect the water pump and replace if it
has any of the following conditions:
²The body is cracked or damaged
²Water leaks from the shaft seal. This is evident
by traces of coolant below the vent hole
²Loose or rough turning bearing. Also inspect
thermal fan drive
²Impeller rubbing the pump body
INSTALLATION
(1) Install new O-ring seal in groove on water
pump (Fig. 62).
(2) Install water pump. Tighten mounting bolts to
24 N´m (18 ft. lbs.) torque.
(3) Install accessory drive belt. Refer to procedure
in this group.

REMOVAL - WATER PUMP BYPASS HOSE
WITHOUT AIR CONDITIONING
A water pump bypass hose (Fig. 70) is used
between the intake manifold and water pump on all
gas powered engines. To test for leaks, (Refer to 7 -
COOLING - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
(1) Partially drain cooling system (Refer to 7 -
COOLING - STANDARD PROCEDURE). Do not
waste reusable coolant. If the solution is clean, drain
the coolant into a clean container for reuse.WARNING: CONSTANT TENSION HOSE CLAMPS
ARE USED ON MOST COOLING SYSTEM HOSES.
WHEN REMOVING OR INSTALLING, USE ONLY
TOOLS DESIGNED FOR SERVICING THIS TYPE OF
CLAMP, SUCH AS SPECIAL CLAMP TOOL (NUMBER
6094). SNAP-ON CLAMP TOOL (NUMBER HPC-20)
MAY BE USED FOR LARGER CLAMPS. ALWAYS
WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WHEN SERVICING CON-
STANT TENSION CLAMPS.
CAUTION: A number or letter is stamped into the
tongue of constant tension clamps. If replacement
is necessary, use only an original equipment clamp
with a matching number or letter.
(2) Loosen both bypass hose clamps and position to
the center of hose.
(3) Remove hose from vehicle.
