The Mazda MPV Water Pump ensures that the engine of the minivan is not overheated by forcing coolant through the block and to the radiator, where the surplus heat exits the system to the air. This piece of equipment is located next to the lower radiator hose and is a spinning device, an all-steel projection on sealed bearings, belt-pulley-driven, with a finned impeller sweeping coolant across the water jacket at each stroke of the crankshaft. The early MPV models had a heavy cast-iron enclosure; however, in subsequent Mazda models, the pumps have lightweight aluminum castings that combat rust and trim down weight. In the majority of model years the system has been a mechanically driven design, including the part belt with the alternator, but a few of the more recent designs include compact electric pumps spinning independently and free of belt drag, which provide faster flow while removing the drag of the belt. These two types of Water Pump are applied to accomplish the same task, but the electric type responds faster to sudden changes in temperature. All subsequent MPVs continue to experience the same dependence on constant circulation, and a worn-out pump would soon announce itself in pink or green drips, grumbling noises, or a skyrocketing temperature indicator. The Water Pump cannot be ignored, as unlike other Mazda cooling parts, loss of flow can bend heads and destroy gaskets in a few minutes. Close monitoring of coolant leaks and suspicious sounds aids in ensuring that Mazda powerplants operate smoothly and reliably.
