Good Maintenance Practices - Section 1 - Bullet 1: Clean all excess dirt and debris from the water pump housing.

Good Maintenance Practices - Section 1 - Bullet 2: Run your vehicle to increase engine temperature, and ensure the system is pressurized.

Good Maintenance Practices - Section 1 - Bullet 3: Inspect for leakage at the water pump outlet housing or the rear cover gasket, and leakage at the water pump vent or weep hole.

Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 1: Clean and reinstall the coolant recovery reservoir before flushing the cooling system.

Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 10: Inspect related components in the cooling system, including your fan blades, fan clutch, engine mounts, radiator, belts and hoses, and reservoir.

Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 2: Flush the cooling system completely, using power flush equipment or thermal cycling the system with clean water three times. The most effective method of system flushing is to use a coolant exchanger,

Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 3: Do not use any non-approved flush agents and replace the coolant according to manufacturer's specifications.

Good Maintenance Practices - Section 3 - Bullet 4: Clean all sealing surfaces, and make sure all old gasket material is removed before installing your replacement component.
