2005 Ford Explorer Water Pump Parts Questions & Experts Answers
Q: How to Service and Repair the Water Pump for the 4.0L SOHC Engine on 2005 Ford Explorer?
A: The first step of servicing and repairing the 4.0L SOHC engine coolant pump is to drain the engine cooling system. The cooling fan and accessory drive belt must be removed first then follow with bolts and coolant pump pulley removal while tightening the reinstalled pulley bolts to 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.). Unfasten the coolant pump bypass hose and heater hose and lower radiator hose through the process of clamp release. Install the new gasket after securing the bolts for the coolant pump by tightening it to 10 Nm (89 inch lbs.). Metal scarpers along with wire brushes and abrasive tools must be avoided when cleaning sealing surfaces due to their ability to generate scratches and gouges that will cause leaks. However, plastic scrapers should be used to remove old gasket remains before using plastic scrapers and following metal surface preparation guidelines in the product instructions. Finish the operation by reinstalling both the new coolant pump and gasket through the reverse of previous steps.
