I just had the alternator (bearing went bad) and water pump changed (coolant leaking through the weep hole). Still the original block.

GMB is a decent pump.
Pros: decent pump
I got a water pump there for 80 dollars ford wanted to sell me for $560, I've spread the good word ever since
Pros: good price
Trying to replace my water pump on my 2000 Ford Ranger 3.0L (flex fuel). I can’t find a video that performs this repair on my model; 4cylinders and v6 4.0 yes, but not the 3.0. There’s 12 bolts on the WPump, 11 are EZPZ, one is behind something else. I’ve got everything off except for one bolt that is stuck behind the “mount” for the pulley tensioner/AC compressor. It’s not the power steering pump, it’s not the AC compressor, and it’s not the pulley tensioner - *it’s what all 3 of these things are mounted too.* I’ve loosened 3 bolts that seem to mount this “mount” to the engine block, but I must be missing 1+, as it won’t budge.

Ford Ranger
The part they had sent to replace for a recall leaked all of the coolant out. Luckily the tech caught it and ordered another part.
Cons: leaked all coolant
Vehicle:
Ford Bronco
Had my water pump go out around 29K miles this past winter. My coolant was very low and my heat was working properly. Luckily I was still under warranty. Keep an eye on that water pump. They’re notorious for failing.
Cons: notorious for failing, coolant low

Sadly, I've gone through two water pumps on my 2012 Ford Explorer.
Cons: poor reliability, two pumps failed
Vehicle:
Ford Explorer
This is why I’ve avoided the 3.5/3.7 Duratec engines in transverse (front wheel drive) platforms. It’s just fine in rear wheel drive applications as those use an external pump driven by the serpentine belt.
Pros: external pump fine
Cons: internal pump avoided
Vehicle:
Ford
Yup, that's happens when they decided to put water pump INSIDE the engine. Ask me why i would never own a newer Ford. Oh, and a timing belt cooled by engine oil, what could possibly ever go wrong? Last 10 years Ford has managed to come up dumbest engine designs.
Cons: water pump inside engine, dumb design
