Hi i also have 93 deville and its leaking coolent i have replaced the radaitor and the hoses just started replacing waterpump have one stud left in front region under the pully cant really get it out no room if aany suggestions please post back on video k
its easer to get to the ones in the back when u take the 2 bolts out the cruse control servo.. and lay it to the side. i was able to get at 15mm wrench in there.. t
I just replaced the water pump on my 92 Cadillac Sedan DeVille but didn't have to remove as many parts. All I had to remove was the battery, the reservoir and took off the front passenger wheel.
im replacing my pump on a 92 deville, when removing the old one , all the bolts seemed to be pretty loose(snug at best) . do you know what they need to be torked to when i put the new one on? and what kind of sealant did you use? thanks
I'm attempting this job this weekend on my 93 DeVille. There really isn't much room to work with. I had difficulty removing the pump. Any tips on working with such little room? (Also heard you can remove the front tire for a little more access).
thank you for the video, my father in law has a 91 deville and the water pump is grinding and smoking. (bad sign) wanted to look into changing it for him but wanted to make sure it wasn't going to be a bigger job than i could handle. Were you able to get to the bolts easier through the wheel well? Also, is it a good idea to flush the system since it may have metal shavings in it? and how would i do that?
@trekalltop yes you can get to the bottom bolts easier the best way to flush the system is to drain the coolant, take out the thermostat .Then bolt back together and let water run through the system for about a half hour.with bottom hose disconnected.Then drain the system put new thermostat in and fill with coolant.
I got your message this morning yes to remove the timing cover but if just doing the water pump it doesn't need to come make sure you don't take the bolts that don't go through the pump out they are for the timing belt cover then if you dont replace the timing belt case gasket it will leak.
no just took the belt out other than that i did take the wheel off to get to a couple of the bottom bolts.Of course you have to take the battery and coolant reservoir out but didn't have to take the crankshaft pulley off actually other than being in a tight spot it really wasn't that horrible.
How do you know if the water pump is bad in the first place??? Can it be bad if it isn't making noise? Thanks for the video!!!

@JMMoosey forgot to mention that there is a little door inside the wheel well to access the engine compartment.
