to install a water pump on a Toyota Tercel 1.5.
Use a jack with a board on top to support the engine. Loosen the bolts for the motor mount. Raise the engine slightly then take the bolts out and remove the motor mount. Install the new mount, tighten the bolts, then remove the jack.
To remove the timing cover with the motor mount bolts underneath, first ensure the engine is securely supported, as the motor mount will be disconnected. Remove any accessories or components obstructing access to the timing cover, then unbolt the motor mount. Once the motor mount is free, carefully lift the engine slightly to relieve pressure on the timing cover, allowing it to be removed easily. Finally, detach the timing cover bolts and remove the cover.
Loosen the motor mount bolts the long bolts through the center of the mount and take them out and jack up the engine and take off oil pan.
just had to replace mine and had to undo the motor mount. be sure to jack motor with a wood block on jack unde the oil pan. just enough pressure on jack to hold up motor. take out the motor mount bolts and drop motor just enough to get belt between the mount and the support where the bolts go through.
No but it does take some weird angles to get to all of the bolts. It should remove without removing the motor mount.
For the upper motor mount replacement-Passenger Side-support engine with a jack,careful where you put the jack head so as not to bend and damage anything,don't put it under the oil pan!.Take out the bolts in the motor mount that go into the engine block,Lower engine just an inch or so with the jack,then take out the one bolt in the middle of the motor mount where the rubber is.Put in new motor mount and reverse these instructions to install. You may have to wiggle things around with the jack and your hands to get the bolts to start threading and line up when you are going back in with the new motor mount.
On top of the tranny where the 2nd motor mount is disconnect battery and take out bolts
Take off the two nuts off the top and bottom of the motor mount that is broken, remove the two bolts with a hammer. You will use the hammer, also, to remove the old motor mount. Put the new motor mount in the same way you took the old one out. Then, replace the nuts and bolts.
drain the oil, remove engine mount bolts and raise the engine 3-4 inches, remove the starter and block to bell housing brackets. remove the pan mount bolts( you may have to take the tranny lines loose if an automatic) drop the pan.
There r two mounts. A top one & a bottom one. For the top mount:Place a floor jack under the "dog-bone" shaped mount on the bottom side of the passenger side of the car. Jack it up just a little to relieve the pressure or weight of the motor on the top mount. Remove the screws on the mount bracket. Then remove the screws on the mount itself. Take the mount out of the mountjng bracket, you might have to drill out the studs put in at the factory. The new mount should fit right in the bracket using the new bolts. Put bracket with new mount back on and tighten all bolts. For the bottom mount: Just remove both front and rear bolts and replace with new "dogbone" shaped mount and replace bolts and tighten both bolts.
Noyou don't. I just changed my water pump in a 91 olds 98 3.8 liter. This is the way I did it. Put car on ramps or jacks stands. There is two bolts under the motor mount that you need to loosen but not take out. Then jack the engine up to the bar that goes across. Then take out the bolts that hold the motor mount on the top. Once you hav e done this then remove the belt. There are three bolts that hold the bracket, Take them off. Oh, i forgot there is a bolt that goes through the motor mount take it ot before you take the bolts out on top that hold the motor mount. Once you get the bracket off then the water pump is exposed for your taking. You will have to put the belt back on to loosen the bolts that hold the pully. that is pretty much it. Make sure you use something to lube the bolts because mine were rusted and din't want to losen especially the bottom to bolts that hold the motor mount. once I got the bracket off it only took 15 min. to take off clean and put other one back on. It is not hard but it saved me $150 to do it myself. Part was only &25 lifetime warranty. have fun. if you need further help you can send me an email at nphantom66@yahoo.com
The Festiva motor has 8 block to transmission bolts and 3 motor mount bolts, take those out and lift. You also have to remove all wiring, cooling system hoses, fuel lines, ac lines, etc that are in the way.
