3) Make sure the impeller is not deformed or damaged.
4) Inspect the clearance between impeller and pump case.
Clearance between impeller and pump case:
Specification: 0.5 - 1.5 mm (0.020 - 0.060 in)





5) After water pump installation, check pulley shaft for engine coolant leaks and noise. If a leak or noise is noted, replace the water pump assembly.
