When the water pump goes it leaks water from the weep hole, usually located below the pully shaft. Just look for the anti freeze with the system full and under normal operating pressure. U should find the leak pretty quick.
if you are getting water in your oil its eather a busted hear or head gasket if no water in oil it could be water pump
we have to bypass the hose in between radiator inlet and water pump with a small bowl
remove radiator cap, and watch the fluid, ull know that the water pump and thermostat is working if you see the coolant flowing around, kinda like a small creek in the radiator.
what if my top radiator hose is very hot and the bottom hose is cold,would that be a bad water pump?
follow the lower radiator hose from the radiator to the water pump
The lower radiator hose connects the radiator and the water pump
Follow the lower radiator hose from the radiator , it connects to the water pump
generally, water pumps leak when defective but still pump water. could be thermostat, plugged radiator, loose belt, low coolant answer if pump is not leaking, get engine to running temp and remove radiator cap look in to see if water is circulating if water is circulating it is not the pump i would change thrmostat then check radiator cap
On the 2001 Toyota Celica, the water pump is located to the right of the radiator. A hose connects the radiator to the water pump.
drain the radiator, disconnect the radiator hose from the water pump. disconnect the water pump. lay down the seal connect the new water pump. connect the hose back to the radiator. its pretty easy
I know on the 4.0 liter V6 the lower radiator hose connects to the water pump
I assume you want to change out the water pump and would like to know if you can do it without draining the radiator. You will lose approximately all the coolant in the radiator reservoir when you remove the radiator hose from the water pump. If the coolant is in good, clean condition, it might be wise to drain the radiator into a container and re-use the coolant.
