1993 Pontiac Bonneville 3.8 mileage: 163,000. My water pump has started to leak on a continual basis. So far, it is still quiet. I would like to replace it before the car breaks down on the road. I have looked at it and it looks like I may need to remove the engine support just to get to the pump. Do I need to remove the support and if so, how do I support the engine?

Yes, you have to remove the support bracket to replace the water pump. To remove the bracket, use a jack and a block of wood to support the engine.
