WATE R PU M PPFP:21020
ComponentsNBS004R1
Removal and InstallationNBS004R2
CAUTION:
When removing water pump assembly, be careful not to get engine coolant on drive belts.
Water pump cannot be disassembled and should be replaced as a unit.
After installing water pump, connect hose and clamp securely, then check for leaks using the radi-
ator cap tester (commercial service tool) and the radiator cap tester adapter [SST: EG17650301
(J33984-A)].
REMOVAL
1. Remove engine room cover (RH and LH). Refer to EM-14, "ENGINE ROOM COVER" .
2. Remove air duct (inlet) and air cleaner case assembly. Refer to EM-17, "
AIR CLEANER AND AIR DUCT"
.
3. Remove front engine undercover with power tool.
4. Remove drive belts. Refer to EM-15, "
DRIVE BELTS" .
5. Drain engine coolant from radiator. Refer to CO-11, "
Changing Engine Coolant" .
CAUTION:
Perform this step when the engine is cold.
Do not spill engine coolant on drive belts.
6. Remove water drain plug (front) on water pump side of cylinder
block to drain engine coolant from engine inside.
7. Remove chain tensioner cover and water pump cover from front timing chain case.
1. Timing chain tensioner (primary) 2. Chain tensioner cover 3. Water pump cover
4. Water pump 5. O-rings 6. Water drain plug (front)
