the old water pump r and r trick on a 2.2 4cyl 200 1992

read thru the other posts here.

Add these 'tips' for a leak free install:

1) When inspecting the matting surface on the head Use a Mirror to get a good view of any corrosion/pitting.... polish is away with wet/dry sanding paper.

2) That Metal Heater tube --- another source of leaks in new installs as that seal can get pinched when trying to mount the pump.

If you follow that Metal tube back under the exhaust manifold under the 3/4 cylnder is a Bracket--This bracket bolts to the Block --- 13mm --- remove this bolt to free the Metal tube. It will be still attached/hose clamped to the heater hose but can be moved around a bit.

***After you have polished off any corrosion at the end of the tube, which detaching it from the block will allow you to do easily******

And AFTER the New Water Pump is firmly attached - place the new seal on the end of this Metal tube firmly to the collar on the tube ---- Apply a bit of silicone lube to the seal and INSERT The Tube into the back of the WaterPump --- This will ensure that the seal does not get pinched.

Then reattach the rear of the Metal tube to the block with its bracket/13mm bolt.
