Buying a used water pump: what to check

  1. Inspect weep hole for coolant stain trails: Check the bottom housing weep hole for wet coolant leaks, green crust, or rust trails indicating shaft seal failure.
  2. Verify shaft bearing play and impeller rotation: Spin the pulley hub by hand to feel for gritty bearing movement, radial shaft wobble, or binding impellers.
  3. Check impeller blade material and condition: Inspect plastic or stamped metal impeller vanes for cavitation erosion, broken fins, or loose press-fit hubs.
  4. Confirm housing mounting flange flatness: Verify that aluminum mating flanges are free of deep gouges, corrosion pits, or cracked bolt holes.
  5. Install a new gasket and flush system coolant: Clean block mating surfaces thoroughly and refill with fresh manufacturer-approved coolant during installation.
