Mazda 626 Water Pump Replacement: Removing the Tire

Hello. My name is Jeff Fiffie. Today I'll be showing you how to remove and replace a water pump on a Mazda 626. Of course the use of a jack and a jack stand is going to be necessary before we can remove the motor mount. Replacing the jack underneath the pan is the best spot to jack up your engine so you don't put a hole in the pan, oil pan, itself. Checking the height of your engine itself. You want it to be flush. Just enough to take off the tension off of the bolt and the mount. Jacks and jack stands need to be placed underneath just to secure the vehicle so it doesn't fall and tumble on you. You're going to have to remove the tire off the car itself. After the vehicle is secure with the stands off the ground remove lug nuts and remove the tire. I like to set the tire underneath the frame itself so if someone bumps into the car and knocks it off the stands it will fall on the tire itself and then the car doesn't fall on the ground.
