im lost, go to parts supplier and ask them to put every pump they have in stock on the counter, print or draw the diagram of the belt routeing and let them figure it out for you
it should be ccw on the pulley side or cw on the impeller side
ccw=counter clock wise cw=clock wise

also bring the reciept of the one you have so you can verify the part number and rotation

you need to try a napa or somewhere that has a clue

OffRoadAllDay

yes...i had a 87 jeep cherokee n i used sum parts off that to put on this one i have now....all the parts matched up n it looked identical so im bout 99.9%-100% sure

OffRoadAllDay

lol i mean iv never had this problem nor have i ever heard of a prob like this...me and a few friends (they wrok on cars/trucks too) r completely stumped....the one i have now has a R stamped on the impeller side and i went to napa 2day and they gave me one that didnt have the R on it and it said standard rotation in the discription on their comp but they r both the same

wow wish i woulda known bout that site b4 haha...i looked on there and they have the water pump with a impellers going the other way(the way i need it to go)....but it aslo says it will fit 2.5L (thats the only one listed under it) but mine is a 4.0L....will it still work?

kennzz05

wheres the one that was on it originally

kennzz05

doubtfull it will work but maybe you could call them maybe you should call a dealer and get a part number from them or see if they have one in stock and compare what you have

theres also rockauto.com good prices too

heres a thought, if you still have the belt diagram on youre vehicle take a picture of it. take pics of how the belt is on there now and take pics of the pump you have assumeing you will be taking it off again take pics of both sides on the pump post them here and maybe someone can offer more advise. im a truck driver so i may not be back on here for a while but i never know.
good luck. another thing you might try is post in the section where you live like northeast and say that you live in _______ whereever you live maybe there is someone close to you that could help out

the jeep i have now didnt have one on it...the one off my old jeep is sitting at my buddy's house....going to the dealer was my last resort cuz i no they will prob charge out the butt for it but i didnt really think bout getting a part # from them

OffRoadAllDay

ok ill try that...really appreciate the advice and everything from u and everyone else that helped

OffRoadAllDay

ok so it has a new t stat and water pump...flushed it and had flow....radiator gets a lil wamer then b4 but still no time to over heat...electric fan doesnt cut on...could that be the problem? and when we hard wired the fan it will cut on (maybe the wireing or sensor, but idk)

CherokeeOutlaw

Turn your ac on. Does the fan come on?

OffRoadAllDay

the electric fan?

CherokeeOutlaw

Yep

OffRoadAllDay

i dont think so

CherokeeOutlaw

Then if the fan works hard wires but not with the AC on, something in between the fan and the control module (or the module itself) is not telling he fan to turn on. There possibly probably your problem.
