To use this K-Tuned water pump mount bracket, first check if your K-Series engine block has pre - threaded holes. If not, you'll need to tap the holes. Then, carefully attach the bracket to the block. Next, mount your K-Tuned water pump or a compatible one like the Meziere WP136S onto the bracket. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the bracket for any signs of wear or looseness. If you notice any issues, tighten the bolts or replace the bracket if necessary. Also, keep the bracket clean to prevent rust and corrosion.
