94YJ 2.5L - water pump question

May 04, 2004 5 Replies

Anywhere besides the dealer I can get the tube that screws into the passenger side of the pump that connects to the hose connecting to the heater core? Mine developed a small hole during disassembly. ;-) Online sources are okay if you know of one. The ones I checked don't seem to stock it.



Thanks,


Is it just a threaded fitting? If so most parts stores should have or be able to get it.

That is a plumbing fitting with 'pipe threads' on it. You could get the fitting at a hardware store in copper or brass, but you would need a piece of copper pipe to solder in for a hose nipple, the threads are also used in black pipe like for hot water heating. You can get nipples for that that are threaded on both ends, so you just stick the hose on past the end threads.

Oh, also maybe you could just use solder to repair yours?

Auto Zone has those hose nipples on that rack with all the carded small parts that say HELP! on the card. I work at a GM dealer and if we need them, we order them from either NAPA or O'Rielley's.

Sounds like a plan, thanks everyone.
