Q: How to replace the water pump (300) on RPOs LY6/L76/L92 on Cadillac Escalade?
A: Change the rpo ly6/l76/l92 engine Water Pump 300 by first taking off the air cleaner outlet duct and draining the cooling system. Turn loose the radiator vent inlet clamp at the coolant air bleed pipe fitting before you pull out the radiator vent inlet hose. Press the hose clamp holder on top of the Water Pump before detaching the inlet Radiator Hose. To start the job move the radiator hoses aside from the way and take out the accessory Drive Belt. Unclamp and take the radiator outlet hose off at the Water Pump before repositioning the tube. Attach the hose clamp on the surge tank outlet at the Water Pump location before taking out this Radiator Hose. Position the outlet hose as you remove it. Unclamp the inlet hose from the Water Pump at the heater and carefully disconnect it before putting the hose aside. Take out the Water Pump bolts (301) and the Water Pump (300) unit along with the gaskets (309) and dispose of the gaskets. Install the Water Pump by making sure no oil or foreign substances touch the gasket areas. Set the Water Pump (300) onto the engine block using new gaskets (306) and fasten Water Pump bolts (301) first to 15 n.m (11 lb ft) then to 30 n.m (22 lb ft). Place the Water Pump hose back into position at the Water Pump with the clamp. Then connect the radiator surge tank outlet hose and clamp. Set the radiator outlet hose into its position at the Water Pump and put on its clamp before placing the accessory Drive Belt. Spread the radiator hoses right using the Water Pump connections and clamp and mount the radiator inlet tube to the pump. Your last step includes installing the radiator vent inlet hose onto the air bleed pipe fitting and holding it in place with the clamp before filling the cooling system and installing the air cleaner outlet duct.
Q: How to replace the water pump (LA3, LY9) on Cadillac CTS?
A: The first step to replace the water pump (LA3, LY9) includes draining the cooling system and taking off the timing belt cover. Use a catch basin to capture coolant while loosening the water pump bolts. You should remove the water pump along with its seal before discarding the seal while cleaning the mating surfaces and inspecting the pump. Silicone grease from GM P/N 12345579 (Canadian P/N 1974984 or equivalent) needs application on the water pump's seal ring before installing the O-ring seal properly before pump assembly. Utilize the Fastener Notice in Service Precautions while installing the water pump into the engine block then secure the water pump bolts by torquing them to 25 Nm(18 ft. lbs.). Reinstall the timing belt cover then refill the cooling system as the final installation step.
Q: How to replace the water pump on the LC3 - 8 Cyl, 4.4L, SC, DOHC engine on Cadillac XLR?
A: You need to drain the cooling system according to ge 47716 procedure before you can replace the Water Pump in an lc3 engine with an 8 cylinder 4.4l sc dohc setup. First remove the air cleaner components and later the Water Pump Drive Belt. Disconnect both the Water Pump and generator Drive Belt tensioner. Use a drainage pan to take out all Water Pump bolts and remove the pulley pieces including its bolts at the same time. Take out the Water Pump and its seal ring while getting rid of the old seal and thoroughly wash the engine harbor. Check if the Water Pump faces any problems during this review. Put the new Water Pump onto the engine front cover with its seal and tighten the Water Pump bolts to 10 n.m (89 lb in). Modify the Water Pump Pulley and screw its bolts until they reach 12 n.m of torque. Set the new pump in place alongside its tensioner and install both components before placing on the Water Pump Drive Belt. Reinstall the air cleaner unit then replace the cooling system as per ge 47716 method.
