OPERATION
A centrifugal water pump circulates coolant through the water jackets, passages, intake manifold, radiator core, cooling system hoses and heater core,
this coolant absorbs the heat generated when the engine is running. The pump is driven by the engine crankshaft via a drive belt.
WATER PUMP BYPASS - 3.7L/4.7L
When the thermostat is in the closed position the bypass gallery is not obstructed allowing 100% flow. When the thermostat is in the open position the
pill partially covers the bypass hole, reducing the amount of bypass flow. This design allows the coolant to reach operating temperature quickly when
cold, while adding extra cooling during normal temperature operation.
