How to Install the Sonata Water Pump Belt?
1 Answers
The installation method for the Sonata water pump belt is as follows: 1. Remove the water pump from the engine; unscrew the nut at the front end of the water pump shaft, remove the water pump cover plate, and press out the impeller and water seal. 2. Inspect the water seal. If the water seal is made of bakelite and the wear is not severe, you can place sandpaper on glass or dry wood to flatten the water seal or flip it for reuse. If it is a thrust rubber water seal, replace it if it is damaged, swollen, deformed, or if the spring pressure is insufficient or broken. 3. Install the water seal and locking ring, etc.; reassemble the pulley and water pump cover plate, and tighten the fixing nut (or screw).
