Ok all water in your car? in the motor there was only water or is it INSIDE your car? if it is inside your car then your heater core might have died if you just mean there was only water and no coolant you water pump might have gone because if lack of lubracation... tha coolant lubes the water pump

Also what exacaly do you need help with? instruction on how to do the job? if so here is some links that might help:
Water Pump

Not the water pump cheife... it's the heater core! Good luck... it's not much fun to replace.... Depending on where you live, you may just want to bypass it. If you don't need heat, you don't need the heater core.


Hmmm... Southfield MI.... probably gonna need that heater core afterall!

i know where the water pump is. the water that is out there now is by the water pump at first when it happened i couldn't tell because it was dark and it was smoke in the car from the water touching the hot components. im a decent mechanic i have access to all the tools ill need.

Learning to type what you actually mean would be very helpful in trying to diagnose what is wrong with your car... You said "water all in my car" , to us that meant IN the car not under the hood. Speak clearly!
