    Mechanics labor rate to change water pump = '98 chevy cavalier?

    What does the book say on how long it takes to change a water pump in a 1998 chevy cavalier. my mechanic says 7 hours....can that be right?Mechanics labor rate to change water pump = '98 chevy cavalier?its not hard to do it your self 7 hours sound to long for water pump see if you can get a fixed rate Mechanics labor rate to change water pump = '98 chevy cavalier?98 cavalier water pump 7 hours this means that i assume your car has a 2.3 or 2.4 litre engine and if that is the case,the water pump is located on the back side of the engine below the exhaust manifold and is driven by the timing chain,thus meaning that the whole front cover of the motor has to come apart along with the manifold to remove the pump,this is a very extensive repair and i believe that time is about what is given for flat rate in the labor manuals ,so from experience and to his credit i would say he is being honest with you and not trying to rip you off,your mechanic will probably be willing to show you where the pump is and what needs to be done for the repair....but if your car has a 3.1 or3.4 get your car out of there

  • Should i change the water pump with the timing belt?

    i have changed my timing belt last week with all the tensioners but not the water pump.

    my car has done 32000 mile and it is 5 years old (renault megane 2003 1.6)

    the belt on this car should be changed each 72000 miles or 5 year and i decide to change it because it was due .

Good luck with the belt change and have a good one!Should i change the water pump with the timing belt?change it just to be safeShould i change the water pump with the timing belt?If you are already going to have it tore down that far, you might as well while you are at it.
