i have a problem with what i think is my water pump, and i was wonder if anyone had any websites that have free engine diagrams, and if it is my water pump, it turns on and off when at idle, is that normal, if not, what could be the problem?
The Water pump does NOT turn on and off at Idle, that is the electric fan and yes, that is normal. Do you have a heating problem? It is UNUSUAL for the water pump itself to cause heating issues unless the impellor is damaged or it is leaking. Good LUck
you can go to your local chevy dealership service center and not only they can get any part you need they can give you a diagram of your engine. i hope this is helpful to you and good luck.
How to tell if you have a leak do this a dusk look to see if water is coming out of the sides are at the bottom. use a flash light. If the car is running HOT its possible that its you water pump You can have it pressure Checked.
The water pump runs whenever the engine is running it doesnt stop unless the motor is off. If it's leaking out of the weep hole or making alot of noise it's most likely bad. Your best bet it to buy a manual or take it to someone.
