No they are two different engines. Swapping them would involve changing over many other components besides just the engines. Including mounts, harnesses, computers, etc.
Removing and changing the water pump on a 2000 Grand Caravan should only be done if your van has a 3.3 liter or 3.8 liter V6 engine. On any other engine types, including four-cylinder engines, you must remove the timing belt from the engine to access the water pump, which is a dangerous task that can mess up the engine if attempted by an amateur. The procedure is as follows:-------------The water pump is responsible for sending the engine coolant to the engine.First of all remove the serpentine belt then remove the plastic cove on the passenger side behind the wheel. You will have to remove the pulley. Once the pulley is removed unbolt the water pump and remove it. Clean the surfaces and install new pump. Draining the coolant and replacing it is advisable.Drain the engine coolant, twisting and removing the drain plug at the bottom of the radiator -------------------Thats it.
Need more info. Where is the coolant leak coming from? There is a "weep hole" on the water pump. Coolant will generally start escaping from that hole as the seal wears/ages.
The "stalled out" condition could be related to some other issue.
it depend on the millage its a 3.0 liter engine with over 100,000km it was due to change check if water pump not jammed or bearing poulie jammed pierre
The next time you do an oil change, put a liter of tranny fluid in with the oil BEFORE you change it. Let it run for an hour or two.The tranny fluid will clean out the gunk that causes your lifters to stick.Now do your oil change. Do this each time you change your oil, only use a 1/2 liter each time. You will be amazed at the difference, I was.
