get the manual!
If you checked the belt and you think it is loose ,change it. It has a tensioner built in that sets the tension when the belt is installed.
It's been a while since I worked on a 1G Talon, but I believe the water Pump is located on the serpentine belt. It's the same belt with the crank shaft and alternator. No, you should not remove the timing belt.
right below ur timing belt
the water pump is located under the timing belt cover. in order to replace it you need to remove the timing belt, i would recommend doing the timing belt while your in there too.
It would be best if you let a pro install it as every crank has to be lined up for proper timing.
best way to go to parts store and buy a chilton repair manual $20 and it will walk you right through it
It's run by the timing belt near the bottom of the engine. (Passenger side of engine). So you need to remove the timing belt cover to get at it.
Get the Haynes manual for the vehicle. It goes step by step. Used it for mine.
The crank positioning sensor is located on the opposite side of the block as the timing belt.
Go get a chilton manuel from Kragens. You do have to remove the timing belt.
matters which belt u wanna change if its the alternator belt loosen the altenater and take of the belt watch how it comes off and put the new one on the same way after that tighten the belt back up and that's it if its the timing belt get some one who is mechanicly inclined to do it cause if u do it wrong u can damage your engine
The timing belt is on the driver side of the engine in the thin plastic case(it is a simple 4 bolt remove). There are 2 serpentine belts in the way of this as well as the pullies they are attached to, it is a tight fit so be prepared for a lot of frustration!! All the belts must come off the car in order for you to change the timing belt.
