21−WATER PUMPSWater PumpTROUBLESHOOTINGBROKEN WATER PUMP BEARINGS OR SHAFTS ARECAUSED BY ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWINGCONDITIONS:EXCESSIVE ENGINE ACCELERATION. Rapid engineaccelerations, particularly in low gear during quickgetaways, place heavy overloads on the bearing. Anyminor imbalance can be amplified during rapidacceleration and high speeds, which can result in severewhipping action and sudden fractures.DEFECTIVE FAN. Relatively minor fan defects canimpose substantial strain on the water pump shaft at 3000to 5000 RPM. A small piece of fan blade missing canresult in tremendous adverse centrifugal force. Fatiguecracks near the rivets can cause blade shift or vibration.Bent fan blades can also cause serious load problems.FAN NOT SQUARE WITH SHAFT. It is extrememlyimportant that the fan is mounted square to the center lineof the shaft. If it is not square, the fan will wobble, causingvibrations to develop. This is particularly important whereshaft spacers are used to move the fan closer to theradiator. The mounting bolts, if not properly torqued, willcause the fan to be tilted and may result in permanentdeformation of the spacer.BENT OR CRACKED PULLEYS. Damaging vibration canresult from bent or cracked pulleys. This usually happenswhen a pulley is improperly handled or installed.FAN BELT TOO TIGHT. An overtightened fan belt canoverload the bearing, resulting in shorter than ordinaryfatigue life. It also causes bending of the shaft. Suddenaccelerations cause large unbalanced loads, excessiveshaft bending and early shaft failure.SHAFT FAILURE CAUSED BY IMBALANCEExamination of a failed water pump shaft will reveal theprobable cause of failure. Discoloration around thefracture indicates unusually high temperatures caused bycentrifugal forces due to imbalance. A small amount ofimbalance can result in tremendous pressure on the shaftat operating RPM. The overload is concentrated at onepoint of the shaft and eventually the shaft snaps.Lack of discoloration at the break indicates no heatbuildup occured before a sudden vibratory overload of theshaft caused a clean, instantaneous fracture. Rapidacceleration of the engine coupled with imbalance in theshaft is the cause. Small vibrations can be amplifiedduring rapid acceleration and when combined with otherengine vibrations can result in an instantaneous shaftfracture.PREVENT WATER PUMP FAILURE WITH THESECOMMON SENSE RULESALWAYS TIGHTEN FAN BELTS PROPERLY. Drive belttension should be 1/2" to 3/4" deflection with light pressureapplied midway between pulleys.NEVER HAMMER BEARING SHAFT. Often it isnecessary to tap the pump to get it properly aligned duringinstallation. It is very important not to tap on the shaft, asthis results in ball race and ball damage. This can causeanything from a noisy pump to an early failure and even afracture of the shaft.BE SURE FAN IS SEATED SQUARE WITH THE PUMPSHAFT AND FAN CLUTCH IS NOT DEFECTIVE. Fanwobble during rotation will cause the shaft to vibrate,contributing to bearing or shaft failure.ALWAYS REPLACE DAMAGED FANS. Never straightenbent blades; replace the complete fan. Stress cracks andloose rivets in the blades can go undetected and cause acatastrophic failure. If a fan breaks, it can cause seriouspersonal injuries and vehicle damage.21 − 48
