What a wonderful spot for a water pump. 😌
Bought my water pump from Advance. Very pleased to find a BS free video from the same company.
Was it the same engine you worked on?
Thanks a bunch for this video. I just spent the last 8 hours doing this alone (without proper tools for the belt sadly and other assistance where 2 people would help). Without this video I wouldn't have been able to finish it. Thanks a bunch, now hopefully when I get some sunshine I can see if I did it successfully.
only vid i saw to give pump torque specs! thanks advance auto! 89 inch pounds!
just make it snug by feel
Thanks for tutorial, bought the lifetime warranty for $32.95. Great counter service. All employees wearing mask.
THANK YOU for a very helpful video. Saved me a few hundred bucks labor, at least. New wp is only $25.
25 dollars for a water pump? New or used?
List of tools and sockets you are using ?
What is the part called that the water pump bolts into???
the block
my car is leaking where the bleeder valve meets the water pump housing! is there gasket?
What all tools do i need to change the water pump
Any tips for getting a stubborn pulley off the pump?
Thanks for the video.
I can't get the pulley wheel off the water pump. Its rusted on tight. All videos i see it just falls off for people so any advice on getting it loose? thank you
Impact wratchet and use a big screwdriver to wedge between two of the bolts to hold it still
@@EZ4U2Say11 A big rubber mallet did the trick
Awesome video. Thanks.
Great job on your video appreciate ya
great video
I love gm
how do i remove the housing wer the water pump sits on
link to coolant flush tutorial isnt working....
Seems easy enough.
I torqued my water pump bolts 89 as instructed but a head broke off why is this?
in or ft?
Kriss Villalobos Are you sure you used inch pounds and not foot pounds. If you used foot pounds it would have broken the head off of the bolt.
"Replace the belt and torque the pulley bolts".LOL. Easier said than done. The belt will not hold the pulley while torquing.
Did you figure anything out? I've been pulling the tensioner all the way up to get the belt on 😱
At about min 3:40, we're told "you need to check the tensioner, to make sure it's within specs." Ok, so how does one do that? Less than helpful to put a boilerplate instruction in there without explaining or demonstrating...
can I just disconnect that big hose going into water pump to drain coolant?
Yes you can
Ok
IT SURE WOULD BE NICE TO TELL US WHAT SIZE BOLT HOLDS THE BELT SHIELD!
And it would be nice if you weren't so dumb (as to not be easily enough able to figure that out for yourself,... you have no selection of wrenches or sockets ?) and so rude as well TO BE YELLING IN ALL CAPS. The video was extemely well thought out, produced, filmed, narrated, and helpful. (except to rude dummies)

You're using the wrong coolant in that GM vehicle! You are supposed to use DEX COOL in GM vehicle
Yes you do have to use dex cool in GM vehicles! it clearly says "Use Dex Cool" under the hood of GM vehicles. By the way have fun with your sensors failing prematurely
Kyle Skinner it clearly says under the hood "use Dex Cool
Kyle Skinner yes you do!
there's no reason why you need to use Dex cool in any gm vehicle. Any regular green antifreeze is fine. I've got an older version of this same 3.1 V6 in my camaro that was made a few years before Dex cool and it just says "engine coolant" on the tank.
Yes there is! It clearly says under the hood of GM vehicles "use Dexcool"
