First off, you do not have to remove the engine from any vehicle I know of to replace a timing belt. Secondly, your vehicle has a chain, and not a belt.

very hard! I just finished retapping the cam housing bolt holes in my 2000 sunfire. but had to remove the timing chain to get the cam cover and housing off. to get the timing chain off, you have to remove the motor mount bracket off first, then remove the timing cover before getting to the chain. no room to get the bracket bolts off without some assistance to pry the engine to the opposite side.
If the motor is the 2.4L it will be on the back side of the motor,right below the exhaust manifold. It's a job to do. If its a 2.4 the water pump is in the rear of the motor.You must remove the exhaust manifold to access the water pump.Then you must remove the timing chain cover.When you remove the timing chain cover you must remove the timing chain tensioner.Its quite a big job.
To change the timing chain on a Toyota motor, you need to first get a new timing chain. From there, take the old one off. You may have to remove things in the engine to do this. Put the new one on, looping it around.
Yes. You do not have to remove the head.
Answerwater pump for a 98 sunfire is located with the timing belt can be a job. have to remove front of motor. enj. mount ect. More: Unless the 98 is much different from my 96, the water pump has nothing to do with the timing belt. Also, there is no need to remove an engine mount bolt.You should be able to loosen the belt tensioner enough to get the belt on and off the pump pulley.
remove top engine mount and cut off metal lug that stops engine from lowering enough to remove harmonic balancer. Then engine lowers enough.
Should be accessible at passenger side firewall Disconnect wiring harness Disconnect drain Remove 3-4 bolts Twist to remove
I know of no vehicle where the engine has to be removed to change a timing belt.
No. But you do have to support the engine from underneath and remove passenger side motor mount.
You have to remove the motor mount And timing cover,right side splash shield. it better to buy a book and read chapter 2a
I've only done it on a 3 L so I don't know little details of other engines, but in order to change it on a 3L you have to remove all the belts, undo the passenger-side motor mount, remove the timing cover and loosen the timing belt tension idler, replace the belt and reassemble everything.
Please email me a photo of where the blower motor resistor is and how to change it. Thanks, Michael. By the way I want it for a 2000 Sunfire not a Grand Am.
