Hubby is trying to change the water pump on our GMC Jimmy. He cannot get the fan off to access the water pump. What is the trick here? He's trying to do more of the maintenance on our cars to save $$$$ --but it sure is a bear!How to change water pump on 1996 GMC Jimmy?First look at the new water pump, you will notice the threads are either left or right hand threaded. Once you have determined the thread direction, you will know in what direction to remove the fan. Take a large drift punch and place it on the high side of the fastening bolt. strike it with a hammer and the jolt will loosen the grip of the bolt and allow you to remove it. This may take several tries, but it does work, I have used the process numerous times.How to change water pump on 1996 GMC Jimmy?try turning bolts backwards or a sharp tap on wench

If so I recommend you immediately join a pond forum %26amp; tell them your dilemma. You will then be dealing directly with experts %26amp; as well as probably being able to give you a 'quick-fix' to maintain the ponds stability temporarily they should be able to help advise with your mechanical problems as well. The link below has some you might try-good luck.How do i fix my koi pond water pump?? If there is no way to repair it, where can I buy a new one, in L.A.?Dear Lord have mercy for the Fish! I'm not sure what you mean you think the pump went out. Did it or didn't it. Have you looked at the pump. Does the filter need cleaning. Does it have a filter? For now I'd try to remove some of the water and replace it with new water. Visit a petshop that has knowledge of ponds for instructions on how to take care of it or get rid of it and give the fish to someone who has a pond.

I'm in West LA. I go to a few stores around here, but Home Depot or OSH has a lot of pond pumps in many various sizes. Ponds are a lot more self-sustaining and long-term than aquariums and can %26quot;suffer%26quot; through more %26quot;adverse%26quot; conditions than an aquarium because they have the outdoors and the earth and the natural environment to help sustain and maintain them. For instance, which would die sooner without water? A potted indoor houseplant or a plant outdoors in the ground? Also, while it is unattractive, the green algae is not harmful to the fish. In fact, it makes for a little bit of good munchin' for the goldies. That said, getting some circulation in the pond would be nice, so get to HomeDepot or OSH as soon as you can. This water is going to be nice and cycled, so don't mess with it very much. Don't take out all of the water in an effort to clean it. Just add some detoxifer and then top it off with water from the hose. If you need to get rid of the algae, just do some scrubbing, but leaving a little bit is actually good for the pond.How do i fix my koi pond water pump??

If the timing belt and belt tensioner pulley was replaced also, that's the going rate for the job. You have an interference engine and a timing belt driven water pump, so I'm sure they changed the timing belt and if they did a good job, you got billed reasonably.

I need help. Ineed this car back on the road.How do I remove fan hub from 94 lincoln in order to replace water pump?Been awhile since I've done a Lincoln but all fan blade hubs are ether held on by bolts (which means you have to wiggle like heck to get them off, some seize very tight due to the hub being aluminium and the shaft being steel, have had to buy a new hub in some cases) or the hub is screwed on to the shaft. If it is screwed on then there will be a big hex nut at the back of the hub to put a wrench on to unscrew it from the water pump. This will also be a left hand thread so turn in the opposite direction to loosen.
