Ford XU2Z-8501-EA Pump Assembly - Water

A water pump that needs replacement shows signs through noise and leakage. Visually check for leakage around the front pump seal and drain hole. Check the front bearing for roughness or looseness by removing the drive belt and testing for movement. Check the sealing surfaces for signs of leakage. If any of these signs are present, replace the water pump.

Hoses and components should be reconnected, accessory drive belts should be installed, the cooling system should be filled, and a check for leaks should be performed to complete the procedure.
