How to replace the water pump and thermostat on 1987 corolla?
I'd really rather not take it to a shop and pay the extra $300 or whatever for labor. Is it easy enough to do yourself? How do you do it? My Corolla is a 1987 FWD Sedan. I think it's the single overhead cam not the dual but it shouldn't make that big of a difference in terms of difficulty. Just a note, I have worked on cars before - and more then once on this car, just haven't done a water pump before. Anyone know?
You really ought to ante up for a Chilton's or Haynes repair manual. Its only $20. Even if it doesn't have all the answers, its usually enough to get you on the right track, or tell you if its a repair you want to tackle yourself.
