Re: water pump replacement how to do , 92 Saab 900 Posted by southsaab [Email] (#2143) [Profile/Gallery] (more from southsaab) on Mon, 11 May 2020 04:14:23 In Reply to: Re: water pump replacement how to do , 92 Saab 900, JerseySaab [Profile/Gallery] , Sun, 10 May 2020 17:47:58 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
To add a little detail to JerseySaab's description, if you have AC, take that belt off first. I also remove the bolts holding the compressor, and move it out of the way, leaving all hoses attached. The WP pulley needs to come off before the pump. Do this by leaving belt ON the pulley while loosening the bolts on the pulley. Once loosened, remove belt, remove pulley, and loosen/remove the WP bolts. Clean mating surfaces well; if you use gasket cement, use sparingly.
After installing new pump, put pulley on pump hand tightening bolts. Then put belt on and tension it enough to tighten pulley bolts. Re-tension belt, put the other stuff back.
