91' mercury grand marquis overheat and no power steering
My car overheated and lost power steering. I got it
home and saw one of the 2 belts was very loose.
The fan was hanging down and all the coolant had
been sprayed all over the engine. The radiator
looks like it emptied. Idk exactly what needs to be
replaced. It does look like there is damage around
where the water pump and pulley connect. Any
help or advice please?
There is no fan shroud. It was like that when i got it. The fan clutch looks fine but i can see some damage between the pulley and water pump but just cant tell which is damged or both. I guess i should just take the water pump out and see? I was trying to get it out but i cant break lose a single bolt. I dont have much car repair experience. Does it makes sense that the coolant would spray everywhere from the water pump going out?
Ok thanks man. I appreciate the help. The water pump looks like its going to be hard to remove but im going to give it a try
Ok thanks
Well i was about 3/4 of the way there and one of the nuts is stripped... And its a hard one to get to. I dont suppose you have any tips on how to remove a stripped nut?
That one
