Water Pump ?


Recommended Posts

i just got finished a water pump job on a mj with 4 liter ....no noise or leaking but over heating ..the trouble is the impeller the inner side about 1/3 of blade is 4 times away from inverted cone then the new pump in the same area ...which would make the water stall and slow down the water circulation......so watch out on this one

Here's what i think he is saying, with my assumptions noted in parentheses:

 

He just finished replacing a water pump on a MJ with a 4.0L engine. The water pump was not noisy or leaking but the engine was overheating. "The apparent problem is wear on the impeller blades. On the inner side of the impeller blades (the blade edge that faces the housing of the water pump), the outer 1/3 of the blade length is worn so that the clearance in that area is approximately four times the clearance between the inner 2/3 of the blades and the water pump housing." This wear will reduce the pumps ability to circulate water and increase the potential for overheating. Watch out for this problem if you are experiencing overheating.
