does the ford pinto water pump is the same to all engines, pinto or crossflow, 1300, 1600 & 2000?

BTW: what's the main difference between Pinto & crossflow?

thanks

i am not expert but would say yours is pinto.

possible reason why is the drive flange is different is that one pump is fixed fan, the other for viscous.

I'm sorry but my technical english is not so good as I liked.

what's the difference between the two? as I know the fixed fan will attach to the puley that is fixed to the flange.

and the viscous thing what it is?

sorry for my lack of technical therms

The V belt pulleys are the same for Viscous or Non viscous water pump.

The difference between pinto water pumps is that one pump will have a solid nose/spigot onto which a rigid fan blade is mounted (non Viscous).

Whilst a water pump for a Viscous Fan (large multi blade fan mounted onto a hub with small cooling fins one side, connecting through a temperate affected Clutch [the clutch slips when cold but grips when hot] to the other side with a big nut with internal left hand threads). This whole unit connects onto the large diameter left hand thread nose of the Viscous water pump.


I hope this is clear for you to understand.
