Left hand side under the exhaust manifold
2.3L quad 4 is located under the exhaust manifold passenger side. To replace you have to remove the exhaust manifold.
To change the water pump on a 1989 Oldsmobile Calais with a Quad 4 motor, first disconnect the negative battery terminal. Remove the serpentine belt by loosening the tensioner, then drain the coolant from the radiator. Unbolt the water pump from the engine block, clean the surface, and install the new pump with a new gasket. Reassemble everything in reverse order, refill the coolant, and reattach the battery terminal.
On the quad 4 the timing belt drives the water pump. Let me know if you need any mroe info.
really hard
V6 3.1 OR QUAD 4 2.3?
Need to know what quad drivers are...
ON THE 1996 I IT SAYS THEY ARE NEAR OR UNDER THE WATER PUMP
Stuck thermostat or defective water pump.
In the computer.
More than likely a head gasket.
compare it with the old one that came off.
Follow bottom Raditor hose on passenger side of motor under the car.....it goes to a medal pipe that goes to the water pump....Remove the medal pipe and you will find your thermistat....This is on a 4 cyl. 4 quad...Do not leave thermistat out because the car will not heat up properly....
