SOURCE: 2006 monte carlo stuck in park

sometimes if the steering wheel is locked it won't come out of park try applying on the brakes and at the same time move the wheel back and forth and if this does not work and you have tilt it may be a problem in the steering column

SOURCE: water pump

On the 3.4.... Drain coolant, remove drive belt guard, loosen pulley bolts, remove drive belt, remove pulley, remove water pump. Good idea to check the belt for cracks or wear when doing the pump replacement. Reverse the procedure to install.

SOURCE: belt diagram for a 2006 chevy monte carlo

There should be a decal on the bottom side of your hood, or somewhere in the engine compartment. If there isn't just put it on the crankshaft (bottom pulley) and go ribs to ribs, and flats to flats, and work your way around.

Replacing water pump on 86 chevy monte carlo

Thats interesting - - the engine should start even if the water pump has been removed.
An 86 model would have a V6 or a V8 engine and both use a distributor, have you checked for spark at the plugs and fuel in the carb or injector ??

How do you remove a water pump from a 5.3l 2006 Chevy Monte Carlo SS?

Now that's actually a hard one to answer. It's kinda complicated. If I were you, because it's free, go to any highschools in the area where you live and just ask to take your car into an auto tech class. They do everything for free. I don't know how to do it exactly, not the certified way at least.
