briandors Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 Friend's 95 Monte Carlo 3.4 needs a new water pump. Any tips or a how-to would be greatly appreciated. Brian Quote
brian89gp Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 loosen the 4 bolts on the pulley before you take the belt off, and if you don't drain the coolant have some extra ready. Other then that it is a 10 minute job. Quote
99RegalGS Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 To be extra safe from leaks put some RTV blue or black sealnt on both sides of the gasket and around the bolt holes. It ia a pretty straight forward job though. Quote
SmokesGTP Posted October 15, 2003 Report Posted October 15, 2003 It ia a pretty straight forward job though. Wait, Wait holdon! are we talking about the same engine here? You used straightforward to describe a job done on the LQ1. Quote
99RegalGS Posted October 15, 2003 Report Posted October 15, 2003 I ment on my car. Where is the water pump on the 3.4? Is it in the front corner like the 3100's? Quote
SmokesGTP Posted October 15, 2003 Report Posted October 15, 2003 Yeah it actually doesn't look to be too bad of a job. Me and my modest mechanical skill might actually attempt it. Quote
