Crossle Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 If you cannot see it driven by the accessory belts, then it is driven by the timing belt. This means that it is time for a timing belt as well. Is it leaking from behind black plastic covers? If so, it is somewhat extensive work. Can be done at home though.

Crossle Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 its driven by the accessory belts i just dont think its something I want to do ha Oh then it's not that bad, if your doing it at home, you may find it easier to take the engine mount out and jack the engine up that extra 6 inches if the water pump is near the top. I think you are being lazy about it lol. Probably not that bad. It can't be worse than the Cadillac H2O pumps.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossle Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 register to autozone and they should have the repair guide online for it. Register to their site, don't use their parts. Dear God we have had a rough time with people putting pep boys/autozone/advanced cheapo stuff on then bringing it to us and wanting us to warranty it....

Crossle Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 So, based on reading this it IS driven by the timing belt NOT the accessory belts. Just commenting that is was put the other way around earlier up in the thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1647545494 Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 NO.... the water pump is driven by an accesory belt, but to remove it from the block you need to remove the timing belt becuase its right in the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stimmel1647545512 Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 finished the car today let it run for about 15 min filled it back up with coolant during that time and changed the oil before it has the same typical 4cyl valve rattle that it did before no wierd smells or leaking fluids put about 10 miles on it so far hopefuly everyhting stays together. Is there anyhting I should pay extra attention to after I put a few more miles on it? any sounds I should specificly listen for? Thanks and sorry for so many questions this is my first time doing a timing belt by myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
