What is the difference between a reverse rotation and a standard rotation water pump impeller?
Reverse rotation water pumps turn in the oposite direction of the crankshaft and are typically used with surpentine belts. The back (smooth) side of the belt is routed around the water pump pulley, thereby rotating it in the oposite direction of the crankshaft.Standard rotation water pumps turn in the same direction as the crankshaft and are typically used with V-Belts.Turning a water pump in the wrong direction will cause overheating.

How can you tell if a water pump is reverse rotation?
the pulley will sit on the top (or smooth) side of the belt, so it spins the opposite direction of everything else that runs off the belt. in the case of my vehicle, a 1998 Pontiac grand prix 3.1 L V-6, this is the standard rotation. i had the same question when i was pricing water pumps, and only 1 that i found specifically said reverse rotation. i called the parts store to check, and they said that all the pumps for my vehicle are reverse rotation, even if the part description doesn't specifically state that.
