Pontiac Fiero Water Pump
Pontiac Fiero automobiles have a hosing system known as Water Pump that circulates coolant through the water jacket of the engine to absorb heat produced by the combustion process. This refers to the procedure of transferring coolant from the engine to the radiator with a view of losing heat into the air. While from the beginning Fiero featured belt-driven water pumps, the latest applications turn to electric pumps, which provide such benefits as minimized frictional loss and adaptive flow depending upon the engine temperature. The pump heads used in Fiero cars have undergone some changes in the course of time and the types are as follows They had originally used cast iron water pumps, but later changed to more light weight aluminum castings. There are standard water pumps also in options that have improved impellers & internal passages for a much greater rate of coolant circulation, for street & race use. These performance options not only optimise the cooling effect but also reduce the power draw, more hp to the wheels. Electrical pumps are even more versatile and can be easily installed and operated, hence preferred especially in personal built systems.

Pontiac Fiero Water Pump Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: What are the ways to check the operation of a water pump while it is still installed on Pontiac Fiero?A: A failure in the water pump can cause overheating and serious engine damage because a defective pump will not circulate coolant through the engine. There are three ways to check the operation of the water pump while it is still installed on the engine. If any of the following checks indicate that the pump is defective, replaced it with either a new or rebuilt unit. Squeeze the upper radiator hose while the engine is running at normal operating temperature. If the water pump is working properly, a pressure surge will be felt as the hose is released. The water pump is equipped with a "weep" (vent) hole. If the pump seal fails, small amounts of coolant will leak through the weep hole. You will need to get underneath the water pump to see the weep hole, so raise the vehicle and place it on jackstands. Use a flashlight or a drop light to help you determine whether there is evidence of leakage from the weep hole. If the water pump shaft bearing fails, it will usually emit a squealing sound while it is running. Do not confuse drivebelt slippage, which also makes a squealing sound, with water pump bearing failure. Even before the bearing actually fails, shaft wear can be detected by grasping the pulley firmly and moving it up and down. If excessive side play is noted, the shaft or the bearing are worn and the pump should be replaced.
