  Q: How to replace the water pump assembly on Toyota Solara?

  A:

  The process of water pump assembly replacement begins with draining engine coolant followed by removing the front wheel RH along with front fender apron seal RH, engine moving control rod with bracket, engine mounting stay No.2 RH, and engine mounting bracket No.2 RH. The first step is removing the fan and generator V belt and proceeding to extract the generator assembly and water pump pulley as you apply Special Service Tool 09960-10010 (09962-01000, 09963-00700) to remove 4 bolts and pump pulley and disconnect the crankshaft position sensor wire harness clamp. After uninstalling the 4 bolts and 2 nuts as well as the bracket together with the water pump from its assembly. Take new water pump assembly installation steps that involve cleaning all contacting surfaces between water pump and cylinder block free from old packing material (FIPG) using a razor blade with gasket scraper while avoiding oil contact with the surfaces. Clean all parts with a solvent that leaves no residue before fitting seal packing (Part No. 08826-00080 or equivalent) onto the water pump and cutting a nozzle to 2.2 to 2.5 mm (0.09 to 0.10 inch) for application. Assemble parts within 5 minutes. Position the water pump with its bracket using the four bolts and two nuts under 9.0 Nm (92 kgf-cm, 80 inch lbs.) torque then resecure the crankshaft position sensor wire harness clamp. Execute the water pump pulley installation by using Special Service Tool: 09960-10010 (09962-01000, 09963-00700) to put in the 4 bolts while tightening them to 26 Nm (265 kgf-cm, 19 ft. lbs.). The last step involves reinstallation of the generator assembly and fan along with their V belt then installation of engine mounting bracket No.2 RH and related parts including the engine moving control rod with bracket and engine mounting stay No.2 RH and front fender apron seal RH and front wheel RH. Finish by adding engine coolant and inspecting for any leaks.

  Q: How to service and repair the water pump on Toyota Solara?

  A:

  The 2AZ-FE cooling system water pump repair process requires draining all engine coolant as its first step. Start with the front wheel and then the front fender apron seal from the right side. Beginning with the removal of engine moving control rod and its bracket then extract both the engine mounting stay No. 2 and the engine mounting bracket No. 2 from the right-hand side. Servicing the water pump starts with fan and generator V belt extraction followed by the removal of the generator assembly and water pump piece. Special Service Tool: 09960-10010 09962-01000 helps remove the water pump pulley through the removal of its 4 bolts while allowing the pump pulley and crankshaft position sensor wire harness clamp disconnection. Finish the procedure by extracting the water pump assembly after removing its 4 bolts and 2 nuts together with bracket and pump.
