Hey there guys, im new to this site and well the summarize the problem says it all i nee help in changing the water pump on it. i find im always topping up my radiator water
Just to make sure. I assume that you are seeing coolant leakage from around the water pump assembly.
Turn the engine only in the direction of normal rotation. Backward rotation will cause the timing belt to slip or lose teeth.
WARNINGDo
not rotate the engine with the timing belt removed or serious engine
damage could occur. The 1.3L and 1.6L engines are of the "interference
type," meaning it is possible for the valves to contact the pistons if
their reciprocation is not carefully timed and controlled. An engine
allowed to spin freely without the timing belt could bend valves and
scuff pistons almost instantly.
