There are three more under the timing belt cover.
You will have to remove the radiator to get this cover off.
The water-pump housing is also part of the timing-belt tensioner.

How to replace the water pump

Water Pump
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Never open, service or drain the radiator or
cooling system when hot; serious burns can occur from the steam and hot coolant.
Also, when draining engine coolant, keep in mind that cats and dogs are
attracted to ethylene glycol antifreeze and could drink any that is left in an
uncovered container or in puddles on the ground. This will prove fatal in
sufficient quantities. Always drain coolant into a sealable container. Coolant
should be reused unless it is contaminated or is several years old.

2S-ELC Engines

  1. Drain the cooling system.
  2. Remove the timing belt as described in this section.
  3. Remove the alternator adjusting bar.
  4. Disconnect the lower radiator hose from the water inlet housing.





    Fig. 1: Exploded view of the water pump mounting
    89553g42.gif



  5. Disconnect the water temperature switch from the water inlet housing.
  6. Disconnect the water by-pass hose from the water pump.
  7. Remove the two heater pipe clamp bolt. Remove the two nuts and heater pipe
    with gasket. Replace the gasket.
  8. Loosen the three water pump mounting bolts in the indicated sequence.





    Fig. 2: Water pump bolt loosening sequence for 2S-ELC and 3S-FE
    engines
    89553g43.gif



  9. Remove the water pump and O-ring. If the water pump is stubborn, tap it a
    few times with a rubber mallet.
  10. Installation is the reverse of removal. Make sure all the water pump and
    engine contact surfaces are clean and install the new O-ring into the pump cover
    groove.
  11. Install the water pump with the three bolts. Tighten the bolts in sequence
    to 82 inch lbs. (9 Nm).
  12. Fill the cooling system to the proper level with a good brand of ethylene
    glycol based coolant. Start the engine and inspect for leaks.

3S-FE Engines

  1. Drain the cooling system.
  2. Disconnect the water temperature switch connector from the water inlet
    housing.
  3. Disconnect the lower radiator hose from the water inlet housing.
  4. Remove the timing belt and timing belt pulleys as described in this section.

  5. Remove the two nuts attaching the water by-pass pipe to the water pump
    cover.
  6. Remove the three water pump-to-engine attaching bolts.
  7. Pull the water pump and the water pump cover out from the engine.
  8. Remove the two O-rings and gasket. Discard them and replace with new.
  9. Installation is the reverse of removal. Secure the water pump onto the
    engine and install the three bolts. Tighten the bolts in an alternate pattern to
    82 inch lbs. (9 Nm). Install the by-pass pipe attaching nuts and tighten them to
    82 inch lbs. (9 Nm) also.
  10. Fill the cooling system to the proper level with coolant.
  11. Start the engine and check for leaks.

5S-FE Engine

  1. Drain the engine coolant.
  2. Remove the timing belt.
  3. Remove the No. 1 idler pulley and tension spring. Remove the No. 2 idler
    pulley.
  4. Disconnect the lower radiator hose at the water inlet.
  5. Remove the alternator belt adjusting bar.
  6. Loosen the two nuts and disconnect the water by-pass pipe.
  7. Remove the three pump mounting bolts in sequence (middle, top, bottom) and
    then pull out the water pump and cover. Remove the gasket and two O-rings.





    Fig. 3: Bolt removal sequence for 5S-FE engines
    89553g46.gif

    To install:

  8. Replace the two O-rings and gasket with new ones, coat the by-pass O-ring
    with soapy water and then connect the pump cover to the by-pass pipe. Do not
    install the nuts yet!
  9. With the pump loosely connected to the pipe, install the pump and tighten
    the three bolts to 82 inch lbs. (9 Nm), in sequence (top, bottom, middle).
    Install the two by-pass pipe nuts and tighten them to 78 inch lbs. (9 Nm).
  10. The remainder of installation is the reverse of removal. Tighten each
    component to specifications.

2VZ-FE and 3VZ-FE Engines

  1. Drain the engine coolant.
  2. Disconnect the lower radiator hose at the water inlet.
  3. Disconnect the timing belt from the water pump pulley.
  4. Remove the bolt holding the inlet pipe to the alternator belt adjusting bar
    and then remove the inlet pipe and O-ring.
  5. Remove the water inlet and thermostat.
  6. Remove the seven bolts and then pry off the water pump.
    To install:

  7. Scrape any remaining gasket material off the pump mating surface. Apply a
    0.08-0.12 inch (2-3mm) bead of sealant to the groove in the pump and then
    install the pump. Tighten the bolts to 14 ft. lbs. (20 Nm).





    Fig. 4: Apply sealant on the surface of the water pump as shown

    89553g47.gif



  8. The remainder of installation is the reverse of removal. Tighten each
    component to specifications. Connect the radiator hose and fill the engine with
    coolant.

1MZ-FE Engine

  1. Drain the engine coolant.
  2. Remove the timing belt.
  3. Mark the left and right camshaft pulleys with a touch of paint. Using a
    spanner wrench, remove the bolts to the right and left camshaft pulleys.
    Separate the pulleys from the engine. Be sure not to mix up the pulleys.
  4. Remove the No. 2 idler pulley by removing the bolt.
  5. Disconnect the three clamps and engine wire from the rear timing belt cover.

  6. Remove the six bolts holding the No. 3 timing belt cover to the engine
    block.

    coolant leakage.
  10. Using a new gasket, apply liquid sealer to the gasket, water pump and engine
    block.
  11. Install the gasket and pump to the engine and install the four bolts and two
    nuts. Tighten the nuts and bolts to 53 inch lbs. (6 Nm).

How difficult is it to replace water pump on a 1997 dodge grand caravan 3.3L?

Very easy. You can do this. Just take off the serp belt by pulling down on the tensioner with a 15mm wrench. Then remove the three or four bolts for the water pump pulley. You will need to be under the vehicle for this. Then remove the five or six bolts for water pump. Pull the pump out and install new one in the reverse order. Just slip the belt off the water pump so you don't have to figure reroute the whole thing unless you are replacing it. Also clean the mating service for the pump before installing the new pump with the new gasket. Should take about an hour

3.0 Escapes DO NOT use a tensioner for the water pump belt. If you get a clear look at your water pump, you'll see the pump itself is bolted to a pump housing. The pump housing is bolt to the block using three bolts which differ from the actual water pump bolts. Remove the three bolts from the pump housing to relieve tension on the belt. The cooling system will remain sealed. Change the belt and reinstall the bolts. (The three bolts use washers)

Honda accord

Unfortunately, u must remove the timing belt. This is why it is recommended to change the water pump when the timing belt is changed.
Here's the procedure : Disconnect neg. battery cable, remove splash shield at wheel well, (after removing wheel to help gain access, turn the engine to align timing marks and set #1 cylinder at top dead center on the COMPRESSION stroke. Once this is done, u can NOT disturb engine or u will have a fun time trying to figure out how the heck to set the timing. Drain anitfreeze, remove timing belt, remove water pump bolts (be aware that bolts may be different lengths, don't mix them up, remove water pump and O ring.
Put it back together: install new O ring and water pump, be careful Oring doesn't slip or move out of position, tighten to 9 ft lbs, install timing belt, refill antifreeze, reconnect battery cable, start car, check for leaks, bleed cooling system, replace splash shield.
