How do you remove a water pump on a 1997 Mitsubishi mirage?

To remove the water pump on a 1997 Mitsubishi Mirage, first ensure the engine is cool and disconnect the negative battery cable. Drain the coolant from the radiator, then remove the drive belts and any components obstructing access to the water pump, such as the timing belt cover. Once exposed, unbolt the water pump from the engine block, carefully remove it, and clean the mounting surface before installing the new pump. Reassemble by reversing the steps and refill the cooling system with the appropriate coolant.
