Paccar Water Pumps
Paccar water pumps are critical components of the engine cooling system, responsible for circulating coolant through the engine block, cylinder head, and radiator. Proper coolant flow helps maintain stable engine temperatures and prevents overheating during heavy-duty truck operation. At Advanced Truck Parts, we supply replacement water pumps compatible with Paccar MX‑11 and MX‑13 engines used in Kenworth and Peterbilt platforms.

Paccar Water Pumps by Engine Platform
Modern Paccar diesel engines rely on efficient cooling systems to manage heat generated during combustion. The water pump keeps coolant moving through the engine and radiator to maintain proper operating temperatures and protect internal engine components.
Paccar MX‑13 Water Pumps
The Paccar MX‑13 engine is widely used in Kenworth and Peterbilt highway trucks such as the Kenworth T680 and Peterbilt 579. Water pumps on this platform must support consistent coolant flow during long-haul operation and heavy engine load.
- Paccar MX‑13 EPA10 engines
- Kenworth T680 highway trucks
- Peterbilt 579 fleet platforms
- Long‑haul trucking applications
If the water pump begins to wear, coolant circulation may decrease and lead to overheating or unstable engine temperature.
Paccar MX‑11 Water Pumps
The Paccar MX‑11 engine is commonly used in regional haul and weight‑sensitive trucking applications. Cooling system performance is important for maintaining consistent engine efficiency and preventing overheating during daily fleet operation.
- Paccar MX‑11 regional haul trucks
- Kenworth and Peterbilt fleet vehicles
- Medium‑weight highway tractors
Common Water Pump Failure Symptoms
- Engine overheating
- Coolant leaking from the pump housing
- Grinding or whining noise from pump bearings
- Low coolant circulation
- Fluctuating engine temperature
Water pumps can wear over time due to bearing fatigue, seal failure, and continuous exposure to coolant and engine heat. Replacing a failing pump early can help prevent cooling system problems and protect the engine.
Verify Fitment Before You Buy
Water pumps may vary depending on engine serial number, emissions configuration, and mounting design. To confirm compatibility before ordering, provide:
- Engine Serial Number
- Truck year / make / model
- Engine model (MX‑11 or MX‑13)
- Current water pump part number
This information allows our team to verify the correct Paccar water pump for your engine.
