What it does

On many engines the water pump sits behind the timing belt, so the two are often replaced together. A healthy cooling system keeps the engine at its working temperature; most cooling parts are replaced because of leaks, corrosion or a failed bearing or seal.

Installation & tips

• Flush the old coolant and refill with the type your engine specifies, then bleed air out of the system.
• Thermostat: Cheap to replace while the system is drained.
• Coolant: Refill with the correct type.
• Work on a cool engine with the vehicle secured, and use a service manual for your vehicle for torque specs and procedures.
