Hi everyone

So yesterday I noticed water trickling from under the engine, under the main pulley. I'm guessing that the water pump is gone.
I was wondering should I replace the viscous clutch as well? whilst I'm getting it done?

Anyone know how much is the pump for? And the viscous clutch? Does it come with the fan?

Thanks
Maddie

Water pump

AC Delco 150 DH ( chinese )
Crown 250 DH ( Good quality , good price )
Mopar 475 DH ( original )

Pricing may differ slightly ( depends on the spare parts shop )


Fan Clutch is sold separately and is not cheap ( 750+ ) , if its fine keep it as is .

Dear [MENTION=3837]Maddie[/MENTION],

I replaced water pump in my TJ in Dec 2012 with the duplicate, cost me 180/- forgot the brand but it was made in USA. Since then it working fine, no issues. Fan clutch was 700+ so I leave it and it is still working fine.

Thank you very much [MENTION=1531]Abu Jimmy[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2336]yasir[/MENTION]

I headed to Al mazaya , the one one the left road from Sedana because the one on the main road was closed.

Mopar was out of stock and the salsman (Nasir?) Suggested Airtex and insisted that he has never heard of Crown water pumps ???

So I proceeded with the only option afor 165 Dirhams.

Got the cooling system chemical flushed and the next day got the pump changed.

Took off the Aux fan too as it was blocking most of the AC grill.

Once again, thanks everybody
