I have to replace the waterpump and tranny on my 92 Civic DX. I was wondering if it would just be easier to take out the entire engine with tranny to replace both. I believe you would have to take the engine mount on the driver side out to replace the WP, not sure though.

Can someone direct me on what I should do for the easier/faster way to do it? Also, before I get crazy, do I even have to take the engine mount out to replace the waterpump or can I work around it?

Thanks for any info you can give me

Don't do more work than you have too!!!!!!

eg crunkmonster

Yup gotta drop the side and bottom engine mounts....you'll also need an impact wrench to loosen the crank pulley bolt.

Like he said....dont do more work then you have to so i would do it on the car.....just put it on jack stands high enough so u can work under the car.....a creeper is good to have around.

depending on your knowledge on mechanics, i found it easier to remove the motor. i just pulled my motor/trans combo to do a timing belt. call me crazy but i can pull the whole thing in 1.5 hours, in my driveway with hand tools. oh yeah its a b18a in a 92 hatch. a few months ago i swapped out my ls trans for a gsr and it took me 4hours, i will never work on a motor in the car anymore
