@@timothymoore4000 yeah it’s terrible to teach people to make sure their water pump is properly sealed to their engine 🤣🤣 you should make a video about it and educate us
@@BinkaSnail do you do that to your oil filter as well? I went to school for this kind of thing. I’ve never in my life or known anyone mechanic or not do that. Show me where any dealership or automotive shop would do this? It just shows how backyard you are. Does it say in the repair manual to add sealant? Does the box the pump and gasket come with have the sealant with it? Nope. Stop being stupid.
Spot on video. Didn’t know about the shroud being 3 pieces. Auto parts gave me the wrong fan wrench but I got it off. Gonna replace the hose’s and belt while I’m at this point with no coolant in the block. Thanks for a great video 👍
I did this recently and the special tool from the auto parts store, being thin and the nut being on for many years, did not work. So i had to remove the pump, pully and fan as a unit, not easy nor fun. I had to cut the pump apart with a right angle grinder, then get a pipe wrench on the square fan nut, it finally came apart.
Jeez that’s the worst. Tried repairing my F150s oil pan gasket today and quit while I was ahead since I saw something like that coming. Glad you got it figured out!
I'm trying to figure out if this auto shop screwed me over because after checking the receipt, price, and the supposedly the different things they did. So if anyone could give me some input that'd be greatly appreciated. 1st of all they never even called me to ask if I wanted to spend this much. They didn't call me until it was finished which when the tow truck dropped it off Friday April 01, 2022 I was told they wouldn't be able to get to it until Wednesday the following week. So I was very happy to get it back early until I had to pay. Anyways they charged me $444.99. Which this is what was supposedly done replaced water pump/belt, serpentine belt, replaced coolant, and other shop materials. So I'm confused with the 2 belt charges because isn't there only 1 belt for all of the pulleys, which would be the serpentine belt. Like I said I'm just looking for some advice before I show my ass and make a fool of myself. I'm no mechanic but I'm no idiot and I normally would've done this myself but I'm still recovering from knee surgery. I really need some input guy & gals. Thanks in advance.
Thank you for the info, and you the only one that mention ft lbs. torque, everybody don’t mention anything 👎🏼 you very good and helpful 👍🏼👍🏼
Good job bro
This is the best, most well-done, quick and to the point video I’ve seen. Even gave us the diagram 😎 Thank you sir.
Glad I could help!!
So you double gaskets the pump. I’ve never had to do that.
Figured I might as well so I only had to do the job once 🤷🏼♂️
@@BinkaSnail must be some backyard Jack lol. That’s a bad thing to teach people to do.

Wow so informative. If only you had posted this last week when my in-line 5 water pump gave out
Sorry! I tried to get it up as soon as possible 😅😅

Great video, short and to the point. Getting ready to put a pump on my friends truck.👍
Hope it goes well!
@@BinkaSnail Had to order the tools from Amazon. Be here tomorrow. Thanks. Looks easy though.👍
Can you reuse the antifreeze that comes out of the radiator
yup
How much coolant did you add to the radiator to know how full it was or did you fill to the brim?
@@stephenflynn8542 it’s been so long that I don’t remember. I’m sure I just poured back in everything that came out plus whatever I lost to the floor
Why did you end up replacing the pump? Was it because of overheating or was the pump making alot of noise?
It was making a ton of noise, no cooling issues
Pretty descriptive but it would help if you would speak up just a little
