A water pump moves coolant through the engine and cooling system so heat can be carried away from the engine. If a leaking or noisy pump is behind your cooling trouble, this pump is designed to replace it.
Because this pump is driven by the timing belt, follow the vehicle service information for the removal and installation procedure. The listed applications use one pump. Country of origin: Mexico.
