Kent-Moore Tool J38816A Water Pump Remover and Installer for GM Northstar Engines

The Kent-Moore J38816A is a specialized water pump removal and installation tool designed specifically for GM Northstar engines. This professional-grade tool is essential for servicing the unique cam lock-style water pump found on Northstar V8 engines used in various General Motors vehicles from 1998-2006.

Key Features:

• Engages directly with the notches on the Northstar water pump cam lock mechanism
• 3/8-inch square drive socket compatible with torque wrenches and ratchets
• Enables proper removal without damaging the pump or engine block
• Allows precise installation with correct torque specifications
• Professional quality Kent-Moore original equipment tooling

Application: Compatible with Pontiac Aztek AWD/FWD (2004), Pontiac Bonneville (1998-2005), Cadillac Catera (1998-2001), and Cadillac CTS (2003-2006) equipped with Northstar engines. The unique cam lock design of the Northstar water pump requires this specialized tool for proper service—standard pullers and installation tools will not work.

This is genuine Kent-Moore tooling, the preferred choice of professional technicians and dealership service departments for GM vehicle maintenance and repair.
