Product Details

Gates Water Pump (Standard) line focuses on OE-quality fit and consistent operation for routine cooling system repair. Part number 42063 is manufactured with premium alloy materials and tested for seal and bearing function, plus leakage verification of the casting and assembled pump. For drivers servicing a timing belt driven cooling system, this Gates 42063 water pump supports proper coolant circulation in 1991-1996 Ford Escort and 1991-1996 Mercury Tracer applications, including round-tooth sprocket configurations noted in the fitment data.

This part cross-references Airtex AW4069 and Dayco DP911 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Coolant circulation problems caused by a worn pump
  • Leakage at the pump housing or seal area
  • Noise from failing bearings or internal wear
  • Overheating related to reduced coolant flow
  • Timing belt service replacement on listed Ford Escort and Mercury Tracer models

Installation Notes

Verify timing belt alignment, sprocket type, and coolant hose routing before installation. This water pump is timing belt driven and uses standard impeller rotation, so correct belt indexing and gasket sealing are important during service. Confirm the vehicle is one of the listed 1991-1996 Ford Escort or 1991-1996 Mercury Tracer applications before ordering.

Quality Assurance

Gates manufactures this water pump with premium alloy materials and performs functional testing of seals and bearings, along with leakage testing of the casting and assembled unit. The result is an OE-quality fit for the specified applications.
