Ok, ok, so this isn't about my ST. My mom has a 92 Camry(Wait! Don't move to "Off-topic" yet!). It has a 5S-FE >wink.gif>

Water Pump doesn't work anymore. (I don't know what they call it when it breaks). I don't know what the water pump looks like or what it does but my dad said it was broken. I guess she needs a new one.

Can anyone tell me how to go about removing a water pump and replacing it with a new one?

And can anyone get me a picture of what a water pump looks like? Preferably the GT peeps. Thanks >smile.gif>

ok no offense but if you have no idea what a water pump is or looks like i dont suggest doing it yourself especially on your mom's car. but while your at it replace the timing belt and the thermostat.

Is it really that hard? A mechanic that doesn't work at a Toyota dealer wouldn't know how to do it?

its not a job for ppl who dont work on cars on a daily basis, it takes allot of work and time to do this. we all think a reliable mechanic is the way to go.

any reliable mechanic can do it, but folks here just say go for toyota because in general they know our cars best.
