SOURCE: Power Steering Pressure Hose

Simple. Remove bolt from pump. Remove 2 10mm bolts that anchor it to the frame. Then disconnect it where the 2 hoses meet just behind the alternator. Takes less than 3 minutes without air tools.

SOURCE: just coded my 1999 Kia Sephia, P0303, and P0336

Hello ayltaz: My name is Roger and I Will help you. The first code p0303 relates to a cylinder misfire in #3 cylinder. This could be a bad plug or plug wire. The second code relates to the crankshaft position sensor. You can just replace the sensor or have this problem tested as to replace a sensor because of a code can get real expensive and may not fix the problem. Should you need further help please just ask. Please rate the answer. Thank You for using Fix Ya. Roger

I have a 99 Kia Sephia and it will not move in any gear the clutch seems to be engaging and disengaging but the transmission will not spin the wheels in any gear

It sounds like a bad clutch. It is the clutch if you can change gears with the clutch out and the engine running.

The timing belt on my 99 kia sephia has apparently broken...is there any way to tell whether it damaged the pistons and valves before I spend money replacing the timing belt and water pump?

No there no way way of knowing without replacing the timing belt, cylinder compression test at this point would not work due to valve's open at wrong time, this engine is a INTERFERENCE ENGINE, but you might get luckly where it did not damage valve's it's happen here at my repair shop, also you don't have to replace the water pump, it is not timing belt driven water pump

Timing belt replacement for 2001 Kia Sephia

For California models recommended at 105,000 miles.Belt needs to be inspected at 60,000 and 90,000, miles and replace at 105,000 miles.
Except California replace at 60,000 miles. Note 1.8L engine is a interference engine, if timing belt goes bad will cause major internal engine damage.
