To replace the water pump on a 1998 Malibu with a four-cylinder engine, start by disconnecting the negative battery cable and draining the coolant. Remove the serpentine belt, then detach any components obstructing access to the water pump, such as the alternator or engine cover. Unscrew the water pump bolts, carefully remove the old pump, clean the mounting surface, and install the new pump with a new gasket. Finally, reassemble everything, refill the coolant, and check for leaks.
