Water Pump

Repair and servicing of the water pump starts with draining the cooling system. The first step involves removing the timing belt then (A) bolt and (B) timing belt tensioner must be taken off. Lower the vehicle while you detach the lower radiator hose from the water pump. The service begins after disconnecting the heater hose from the water pump followed by (A) three bolt (B) one stud (C) the water pump removal sequence. Install only plastic manual scrapers instead of abrasive grinding discs to remove gasket materials when preparing mating surfaces on the cylinder block and water pump. Place the new gasket beneath the water pump before you install it and replace the heater hose connections. You should raise and support the vehicle once more to install lower radiator hose on the water pump before reinstalling the timing belt tensioner to finally reattach the timing belt. Fill the cooling system with Ford Premium Engine Coolant E2FZ-19549-AA (in Oregon F5FZ-19549-CC / in Canada / Motorcraft CXC-8-B) and an equivalent coolant meeting ESE-M971344-A specifications diluted in equal parts water. Inspect all hose connections while monitoring the engine temperature until the water thermostat allows the fluid to flow during the warming process. When stopping the engine commonly add sufficient coolant to the recovery reservoir until you reach the specified minimum cold fill threshold.

Service of the water pump on a 2.0L Zetec engine starts with disconnecting the battery ground cable and draining the cooling system. The first step includes bolting off the retaining bolts from the coolant pump pulley followed by the accessory drive belt extraction and subsequent removal of the pulley. Detach the coolant pump from the coolant pump housing then proceed to rotate the coolant pump 180 degrees before extracting it while discarding the sealing ring. When installing the component utilize a fresh coolant pump sealing ring which has received engine coolant lubrication before using it. You should apply the reversed uninstallation method. To finalize the service the technician must complete the cooling system filling procedure along with bleeding operations.

The water pump servicing process starts with draining the cooling system. The first step is to loosen the water pump pulley bolts along with the removal of the accessory drive belt. Follow this step with the removal of water pump bolts before elevating and supporting the vehicle to reach the water pump. Installation of a new water pump requires following the opposite steps of removal and finally completing the cooling system with fluid.

The first task to service and repair the water pump begins with draining the cooling system. First unfasten the water pump pulley bolts before taking out the accessory drive belt. Service the water pump by first accessing it by lifting and supporting the vehicle after removing its bolts. Performing water pump removal then installation follows the opposite order to original removal steps and requires filling the cooling system afterward.

The first step for servicing the water pump of vehicles which utilize a 2.0L engine requires draining the cooling system. The first step involves loosening water pump pulley bolts before removing the accessory drive belt. You should then remove the water pump bolts before lifting and supporting the vehicle to reach the water pump. Installation begins by following the reverse order of removal and then filling up the cooling system in order to finish the water pump service.

Reinstall the timing belt tensioner and the timing belt, then lower the vehicle.

Begin by draining the engine cooling system.

It is important to clean and inspect the sealing surfaces before installation.

Take off the accessory drive belt followed by the water pump pulley.

Allow the engine to warm up until the water thermostat opens, then stop the engine and top off the coolant recovery reservoir as necessary to maintain the minimum cold fill level.

Raise and support the vehicle, install the lower radiator hose, then install the timing belt tensioner followed by the timing belt.

Detach the water pump from the water pump housing, then rotate the water pump 180° within the housing and remove it, discarding the sealing ring.

Next, remove the accessory drive belt.
