How to change time belt on 1995 mitsubishi mirage

You do not really need a manual to change the belts. All Mitsubishi cars pretty much hide the water pump under the timing belt. You should buy all new belts for the car and if you have 150,000+ miles consider replacing the water pump at the same time.
You will have to take off the power steering belt .
First , take off the negative battery cable so you do not blow an expensive fuse on the positive battery cable clamp. Facing the back of the car , reach UNDER the alternator and loosen the bolt on the bottom right side, now loosen the bolt on the adjuster block on top, you can now turn the adjuster bolt and move the alternator to change the belt.
To take off the steering pump belt on the front of the motor, you need to loosen the nut on the back side of the pulley it holds the adjuster pulley in place . With the adjuster pulley loose , you can use the adjuster bolt to move the pulley to adjust the steering pump belt.
Now take off the upper belt cover, support the motor, take off the motor mount, jack up the right front corner of the car, take off the front right tire, take off the engine plastic under cover.
Line up the TDC timing mark on the cover to the mark on the pulley, using an air wrench to loosen the center bolt take off the lower pulleys,
take off the lower engine cover, observe the timing marks/arrows and highlight with paint (crank marks and cam marks should all line up if not , rotate the crankshaft one full turn.), loosen the timing belt tensioner pulley ,take off the timing belt, counter balancer belt if there is one. Now you can unbolt the water pump, scrape the gasket, and replace it.
The good news is, if you have tools,a compressor, an air gun(for lower pulley bolt), patience , and four to eight hours to kill, you can actually save money and do it your self.

Pictures or directions to fix a belt on the alw880qaw model washer

1st: (I assume you have of the ront panel and machine is unplugged) Look at the motor. The pump is below it(right). Disconnect the pump hose watch out water is still in the pump. 2nd: Identify the 4 1/2" mounting bolts holding the Motor frame to the washer frame. Take those out. Careful the motor will drop so try to prop it up or cushion it(don't want to break the motor) 3rd: Pull off spring on tensioner pulley(do not lose this). Then take off belt(if not already off) Pull the motor and mount out. 4th: Youu will need some torx bits to remove the pump( I think it is the t-20 or t-25 it's just good to buy a little set of them). It should have three of them. Before you take off the pump look how the belt is orientated to the pump. After you get teh pump off it is easy and self explanatory. Then assemble in reverse except wait to the last to put the belt around the big pulley under the washer tub. Also it can be helpfull to have another person hold the motor as you try to start the 1/2" mounting bolt. Hope this helps you.

How do you pull apart a pool pump to replace the bearing onga pomp

Assuming the pump is at your working table, do the ff;
1.Unscrew the bolts holding the pump case.
2. Take the impeller and the mechanical seal off the
pump shaft.
3. Now you can take the motor off the pump by
unscrewing the bolts holding the motor and pump.
4. Then, you can dismantle the motor by unscrewing
the four long bolts holding it.
5. Take the back plate off and the centrifugal switch
on the shaft. Mark the original location.
6. Now, you can pull the rotor out, by a slight force
at the back plate side of the motor shaft. Note
that the front plate hold the bearing is bolted.
The front plate goes out with the rotor.
7, Now you can change the motor bearings.
To reassemble, the procedure is the reverse of what you just done. Send your e-mail for further assistance.
