Q: How to remove and install a water pump in a Oldsmobile Cutlass?
A: Disconnect the negative battery cable. Drain the Radiator. Reaching inside the radiator shroud, remove the bolts which secure the fan to the water pump hub. Remove the fan and spacer(if equipped). A thermostatic fan clutch must remain in the "in car"osition. If equipped with a two-piece radiator shroud, remove the upper half of the shroud for better access to the water pump. It is now necessary to loosen and remove all drivebelts from the water pump pulley. The number of belts will depend upon model, year.and equipment Loosen the adjusting and pivot bolts of each affected component (air pump, alternator, air conditioning compressor) and push the component inward to loosen the belt enough to be removed from the water pump pulley. Disconnect and remove all mounting brackets which are attached to the water pump. These may include on late model vehicles the alternator, air conditioning compressor, and power steering brackets. Disconnect the lower radiator hose, heater hose, and bypass hose at the water pump. Remove the remaining bolts which secure the water pump to the front cover of the engine. Lift the water pump housing straight out of the front cover and then away from the engine. If installing a new or rebuilt water pump, transfer all fittings and studs to the new water pump (If a replacement pump is used, transfer all hose fittings from the old pump to the new). Clean the gasket surfaces of the front cover completely using a gasket scraper or putty knife. Use a thin coat of gasket sealant on the new gaskets and install the new water pump. Place the pump into position on the front cover and secure loosely with the bolts. Do not torque-tighten these bolts until all brackets have been installed to their original position on the water pump. Tighten all water pump bolts to torque specifications. Install the engine components in the reverse order or removal,tightening the appropriate fasteners to torque specifications. Adjust all drivebelts to the proper tension. Connect the negative battery cable and fill the radiator with a mixture of ethylene glycol antifreeze and water in a 50/50 mixture. Start the engine and allow to idle until the upper radiator hose gets hot. Check for leaks. With engine hot, fill with more coolant mixture until the level is at the bottom of the filler neck. Install radiator cap and check coolant level periodically over the next few miles of driving.
Q: What are the ways to check the operation of the water pump while it is still installed on the engine for Oldsmobile Cutlass?
A: A failure in the water pump can cause serious engine damage due to overheating as the pump will not be able to circulate cooled water through the engine. There are three ways in which to check the operation of the water pump while it is still installed on the engine. If the pump is suspect, it should be replaced with a new or factory-rebuilt unit. With the engine warmed up to normal operating temperature, squeeze the upper radiator hose. If the water pump is working properly, a pressure surge should be felt as the hose is released. Water pumps are equipped with 'weep' or vent holes, out of which water leaks when the internal bladder has failed. If a failure occurs to the bladder of the pump, small amounts of water will leak from these 'weep' holes. In most cases, it will be necessary to use a flashlight from under the car to see evidence of leakage from this point in the pump body. If the water pump shaft bearings fail there may be a squealing sound at the front of the engine while it is running. Shaft wear can be felt if the water pump pulley is forced up and down. Do not mistake drive belt slippage, which also causes a squealing sound, for water pump failure.
