1.6 Duratec Water Pump Part No

[edwardbarber]

Hi,

Looking for some advice on which replacement water pump I need. The car is a 2003 StreetKa, registered in March of that year. The engine is a 1.6 Duratec (Zetec Rocam). It needs a new water pump. Two part numbers are listed and I'm unsure which I need. First part no 1229571 lists a water pump and gasket, and second part no 1798955 lists a water pump kit with no gasket ... sold separately. Has anyone fitted one? Do I need the additional part shown in the pump kit? Or can I buy the pump and gasket?

Cheers,
Ed

always best to fit a new gasket get your chassis number off the car as they have used 2 diffrent pumps in the past so

best to use the chassis number as that should tell the dealer what part you need. best to replace all seals/gaskets at the same time.

I used this (see photo) from Motorworld eBay shop . Its 02-05 and fitted fine it's good quality As it's Quintin hazel stock.

It comes with a gasket but I used the original on the old one as it was nylon and undamaged.

Don't forget to remove auxiliary belt first by the tensioner bolt. Front driver wheel and wheel arch cover need to come off. 1 hour job tops. Their is a plastic radiator drain plug lower bottom inside left on radiator.

Thanks both. Job done and dusted. Very tight access. Old one was toast, plastic impeller came out in two bits.

Forgot to mention. I fitted the quintin hazel part. Fits fine and quality looked good

For Ford Street ka quintin hazel parts are spot on quality. Glad it worked out mate
