Supplied as a replacement engine water pump for the GM L87 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 and the closely related Gen V 6.2L applications noted below. This listing covers the component described here only; hardware such as bolts, seals and gaskets is included only where the specification list says so.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFunction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe water pump is the only component moving coolant through the engine and radiator under pressure, so its condition sets how well heat leaves the block. A failing pump usually begins with a weep at the seal, then a bearing rumble, then overheating that is worst at idle and improves with engine speed. On a Gen V V8 the pump sits behind the accessory drive, so a coolant residue trail from the weep hole is the earliest reliable warning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications as documented\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComponent\u003c\/strong\u003e: Engine water pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM part number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12683468; 12687631\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCross-reference\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12699889 and 12707680 recorded as further compatible numbers for this pump on a parts listing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEngine\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.2L Gen V V8 - pump is documented against 5.3L and 6.2L Gen V applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel years\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2019-2022 (supplier stated); parts listings extend coverage to 2019-2025 and 5.3L \/ 6.6L use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage contents\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 x water pump (gasket inclusion not confirmed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEngine: 6.2L Gen V V8 - pump is documented against 5.3L and 6.2L Gen V applications.

Fit a new gasket dry unless the manufacturer specifies otherwise, torque the fasteners evenly in sequence, and refill with the specified coolant at the correct concentration. Bleed the system properly, run a full heat cycle with the heater open, and re-check the level once the engine is cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment notice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatibility is stated for the GM L87 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 on the strength of the supplier listing and, where an OEM number is published, a parts-catalogue cross-check. GM built the 6.2L V8 in several forms, and L86, LT1, LT2 and LT4 components are not automatically interchangeable with L87 parts. Before ordering, confirm the engine RPO code and the original part number against the vehicle, and treat this listing as a guide rather than a substitute for that check. Specialist engine repairs should be carried out by a qualified technician.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Global Engine Components","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54770013045054,"sku":"L87-WP-12683468","price":1086.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0948\/1486\/3678\/files\/Hca490a0ab1c142318bc8cc0bcbb99516J.png_640x640_3424b46d-dd4a-453e-8d13-bc7d3cfe1a99.png?v=1793097449","url":"https:\/\/asiapartsstore.com\/products\/gm-6-2l-v8-ecotec3-water-pump-12683468-12687631-silverado-1500-sierra-1500-2019-2022","provider":"Asia Parts Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
