1995 LeBaron Water pump advice

Apr 10, 2004 3 Replies

I am replacing the water pump on my car and was wondering if anyone has advice, tips, or whatever before I tackle this enormous project. I know I should replace the crank and cam seals as well as the timing belt while I am in there, but is there anything else?



Thanks!


Ben, what engine? I think the '95 was available with the 2.2L, 2.5L, and

3.0L. The 2.2 & 2.5 are the same externally. On the 3.0L the water pump is driven by the timing belt, so replacing it is more work. Regardless, I suggest you buy a factory service manual and not bother with the brand x ones. Having complete and accurate information will save you a lot of frustration.

There was only one engine option in 95 and it's the 3.0, but like you said, they are the same. I do have the Chilton and Haynes manuals already, you think it is that necessary to still get the factory manual? It costs $80 from the dealership. Just want to make sure it's worth it.

Thanks
