Detailed Product Description

The Gates Water Pump (Electric) 41530E is an engine auxiliary water pump specifically designed to assist in maintaining optimal engine temperatures by circulating coolant in auxiliary cooling circuits. Constructed with a plastic housing and impeller, this pump offers resistance to corrosion and reduces overall weight compared to metal counterparts.

Since this pump does not include a pulley or fan clutch, confirm these components are in good condition or replaced as needed. Follow manufacturer torque specifications for mounting bolts and check for leaks after installation. Electrical connections should be inspected and secured to ensure proper pump operation.
