Water Pump Assembly
Mitsubishi FUSO®

The Water Pump Assembly, also known as ME996867, is a crucial component in a truck's cooling system. Its main function is to circulate coolant throughout the engine block and radiator to regulate the temperature of the engine. The assembly typically consists of a pump housing, impeller, gasket, and mounting bolts. The impeller is driven by a belt connected to the engine crankshaft, causing it to spin and create suction that draws coolant from the radiator. The coolant is then pushed through the engine block and back to the radiator where it is cooled before returning to the pump. A faulty water pump assembly can lead to overheating and potentially cause severe damage to the engine. Regular maintenance and replacement of this part can ensure optimal performance of a truck's cooling system.
