10-18-2023...Thanks so much for making this video. Very well explained in detail. I know what I'll be doing tomorrow!!!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
You MUST lube the o-ring (at 9:00 min)with oil is best. First time I did with WD40, perhaps not enough, and the O-ring crimped and failed after startup ran for 10 mins. Had to tear it all down again, go fetch another o-ring and it was a success with oil.
He shoulda used lithium grease honestly, wd is worst option , oil is second best option
Thanks for the well done and informative video.
Thank you for watching!
Thank you this really really really helped alot
Best video all detailed about how to remove everything is on the way 👌
Thanks for watching!
Nice job, very self explanatory, kool footage
Thank you so much for watching!
Pretty good video. Keep em coming.
Was that the original wp? Mine has that same yellow front. Or does that mean it's time to change it.
I have a 2003 Lincoln Aviator and to release the tension belt a 1/2 inch is too big and 3/8 is too small, what tool do I need? thanks
Is this the same procedure for the 4.6 DOHC
Best video
Thank you for watching!
Any idea how many miles this Ford Explorer has on it at the time of replacement? Just trying to get an idea as to when thus will need to be done.
I believe we were at 120k miles. Great truck. Thanks for watching!
@@2carpros good to know, thanks for the reply!
hi, would you be able to tell me if the fan clutch is reverse roation or normal?
Just look at which way the fan blades are orientated to see which way it turns. I have a great video on removing that. Thanks for watching!
So, about the water pump pulley installation part, are those the only two methods to install it? I have a fairly similar setup for my water pump but I'm kind of afraid to do it the same way you showed here. I tried tightening it with the serpentine belt on but the pulley spins when attempting to tighten up the bolts (there's resistance to get it somewhat tight, but not torque level tight). Tried to use a flathead screwdriver wedged in between bolts, but this "KKKKKCCCCCHH!!!!" sound as I'm attempting to tighten makes me think that's a very bad idea lol.
So is there another way to tighten up a water pump pulley?
Make sure your bolts and threads are clean. It shouldn't be that hard to tighten. But yeah those are the two ways. Thanks for watching!
About how much Wil cost for explorer 2011 to fix the water pomp leaking thanks for is telling me 2.500.00 dlls is that correct ?
That sounds like an awful lot. Thank you for watching!
What is that tool, to get the clamps off on the upper hose?

hi, I have a leakage on the engine pulley, so far I haven't found what is wrong
Pablo Santiago if it’s under your crank pulley then it’s your Timing cover gasket that’s leaking
Is this the same on 4.0L V6?
Very similar! Thanks for watching!
What was the torque specs for the pump?
18 Ft Lbs.
Just tight to me felt good and didn't leak. Thanks for watching!
Why didn’t you just leave on the belt so you could take off the pully bolts off easier
Because you wouldn't want that much tension on a pulley while removing it. Thanks for watching!
I was all good until you put that green antifreeze. Ford 2005 calls for Gold only, and when you don't use it you loose parts starting with water pumps.
Been running great ever since! 50k Miles so far. Thanks for watching!
