The Kia Spectra Water Pump's job is to keep engine heat in check by pushing coolant through the engine block, head and radiator. Located near the lower radiator hose, the Water Pump is driven by a crankshaft belt, which drives a bearing supported shaft and impeller to pump coolant into the water jacket. Recent Kia cars are also using the electric Water Pump option with a small motor instead of a pulley, relieving the belt load and allowing precise flow at idle. Older Spectra assemblies tended to use heavier cast iron housings, while more modern versions of the Spectra switch to corrosion-resistant aluminum; however, the common shaft, seal, and impeller layout are the same for both designs. No matter what material they are made of or what type of drive they have, the Water Pump is responsible for circulating coolant from the radiator to the engine and back, preventing overheating on each and every trip. Tell-tale trouble signs in any Kia are colored leaks around the vent hole, grinding from worn bearings, or a quick rise in temperature when the impeller is broken. If ignored, these symptoms may allow a Spectra to overheat within minutes, so taking measures to replace the Water Pump as soon as possible will keep a trusted Kia Spectra running cool and safe.
