If anyone has chapter 6-12 from a helms manual for 96-98 civics please help me out because the guy i bought the manual from ripped out the chapter. Its instructions on how to replace the water pump. Thanks

waterpump is easy fo sheezy... this a B16 you speak of or D16? ... either way... it's straight forward like a timing belt. If you can do a timing belt, you'll be right in the area of the water pump Be sure to put a new seal on it too!

so its that simple? just remove the bolts for the pump and put on a new seal?

another thing, how hard is it to take off the crank pulley bolt? i have a 1/2" impact gun but dont know whether or not its strong enough

the crank pulley is torqued to something like 121 lb-ft. not that bad, and yes, it's just that simple. use a new gasket as well
