You have to remove the belts and hoses that go to the waterpump. Remove the bolts that hold it on, and pull the pump off.
Depending on how much room you have, you may have to remove the radiator to do this.
Remove any remaining gasket material from the engine block. Then replace the gasket and pump, and anything else you had to remove.
Replace the antifreeze you lost with a 50/50 mix of water and antifreeze.Would some one please tell me how to change the water pump on my stuiped car!!!???You just replaced the motor, but kept the old water pump???
Does not compute.Would some one please tell me how to change the water pump on my stuiped car!!!???Haynes is better than Chilton, in my opinion. However, your local library has reference manuals. Good luck.Would some one please tell me how to change the water pump on my stuiped car!!!???get a new one then LOOK at all of the things that you need to remove that will tell you why it cost so mutch [ it is about a 3 hr gob ] drain remove gasget put back fill etc. if you have a chilton then it will tell you all that you need [ cost ??? time ??? up to you]Would some one please tell me how to change the water pump on my stuiped car!!!???its a front wheel drive car so its a tad more difficult than with a rear wheel drive car. you didnt specify engine size, 2.2 4cyl or 3.0 V6. if its the six, id spend the money and have it professionally done, its already hard enough to do everything else on one of those. if its the 4 cyl then its cake. find it, drain the block and radiatior, unbolt everything in the way, clean it, but a NEW pump not a rebuilt one, bolt it up, put everything back the way it was and put a 60/40 mix of coolant, it offers a better mix. good luck.Would some one please tell me how to change the water pump on my stuiped car!!!???Disconnect battery ground cable.
