On the quad 4 engine the water pump is on the back of the engine. For your application the consensous is that you must pull the timing cover off and insure that the twin cams remain in the same position. Then you remove the exhaust manifold in order to remove the water pump. I got an estimate and the mechanic said he wouldn't touch it for less than $600.

The water pump is right at the engine center. To replace it, first remove the engine coolant then loosen the bolts and remove the water pump. Replacement takes reverse direction.
no.
1997 olds achieva remove starter and wire plug got pulled out and we cant find where it goes? help?
You buy tools and install it!
is it hard to change the water pump on a 1992 Oldsmobile achieva. Yes, it is very hard to replace a water pump on an Achieva. When the pump died on my 1996 Achieva, the engine needed to be unbolted and removed to get to it. As I recall, it cost about $500. I have a 95 Olds Achieva 3.1 and the water pump was very easy to change. Mine is on the front passenger side of the engine. Very easy to get to, just be careful not to break any bolts off. lol
It is in the right kick panel. You have to install a prom also/.

I get about 30 miles to the gallon with my olds achieva.
You don't, as it has no belt. It has a chain that should last the lifetime of the engine.
