Hi, I'm Scott from Stan's Automotive. Have you ever wanted to know more about your auto
repairs, but were afraid to ask your mechanic? We're dedicated to making sure you can drive
your vehicle for as long as possible with the least amount of expenses. This brief video
provides you with information designed to help you make the right decision about auto
repairs. Your vehicle's water pump is one of the most
important parts of your car's engine. To keep your car running it is crucial to maintain
engine temperature and It is the job of the water pump to continually circulate coolant
through your vehicle's engine and back through the radiator so that it doesn't overheat.
We recommend that your engine's water pump be replaced when the timing belt is serviced
or immediately when a leak or malfunction is detected. Refer to the owner's manual for
timing belt service intervals.
When a water pump fails either by leaking coolant or through an inability to circulate
coolant the result is engine overheating.
If ignored, driving a vehicle with an overheated engine will result in engine failure requiring
very costly repairs and even complete engine replacement.
From a safety standpoint, a water pump failure won't likely pose a problem for other motorists
but could leave you stranded with no warning.
From an environmental point of view there is significant impact because leaking engine
coolant is poisonous and could be ingested by children pets and other animals.
