Water Pump to Water Pump Cover Seal, Duramax | 2001-2016
This O-ring seals the back of the water pump to the water pump cover on the 6.6L Duramax in 2001-2016 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500HD and 3500 trucks. It's made from EPDM rubber, the right compound for engine coolant, and sized to the factory seal. When the original seal hardens and flattens with age, coolant can weep from between the pump and the cover. Merchant Automotive bags and labels each seal and includes it in our Water Pump Gasket Kit, Duramax | 2001 - 2016.

Benefits
Any time the water pump comes off, every seal behind it should be replaced. A reused seal can leave a brand-new water pump weeping coolant right after the job is done. Replace if worn or damaged. Commonly replaced at the same time: Water Pump To Engine Cover Seal, Duramax | 2001 - 2016, Water Pump Outlet Gasket, Duramax | 2001 - 2016.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a kit with all the water pump seals?
Yes. The Water Pump Gasket Kit, Duramax | 2001 - 2016 includes this seal, the water pump to engine cover seal, the outlet gasket and both bypass pipe seals.
Is this the same as the water pump to engine cover seal?
No. That seal, GM 94013304, seals the back of the water pump to the engine front cover. This one seals the water pump to the water pump cover. A water pump job uses both, and both are included in our Water Pump Gasket Kit, Duramax | 2001 - 2016.
Is this a genuine GM part?
No. It's an EPDM O-ring made to the factory size, bagged by Merchant Automotive.
