This was incredibly clear and concise. I got in a time crunch and had to drive eight hours out west and I followed the advice here and knocked it out in no time it went exactly as planned. Thank you my friend

[@xjmathews]

For those asking about the clutch fan removal you have to undo the heater hose clamps and get them out of the way then the shroud has those little clips you pop open with a flathead and once you remove the shroud you just need a 12" adjustable wrench to loosen the clutch and take it off. Just make sure you don't take the belt off first because you need the tension to hold the fan in place while you loosen it.

[@jaykio]

wow this 5.3 doesnt even have a fan 👍 that makes things super easy!

[@funkdoktor9099]

Thanks!

[@DrSigler88]

Fan shroud and fan clutch removal?

[@deucescullyful]

Great video... you made that look super simple. Thanks!

[@johnroyal1942]

In your video the 5.3 has the electric fans what about clutch belt driven fan like mine?

[@shawndifer7198]

What about removing the fan?

[@keving1774]

No paper gasket or silicone?

[@jamesbarlowjr.3762]

I’m guessing those were metal gaskets? Thanks

[@tonyhampton1525]

For the ppl with a 5.3 u can a fan clutch wrench for rent at Autozone for 80.00 and you’ll get your money back when u return it💯

[@ThePako1984]

Nice and clean job!👍

[@ge0ne063]

Need to do this tomorrow....about how long should it take?

[@brandona.4987]

My 01 Tahoe is leaking coolant underneath do I need new gaskets and water pump ??

[@everettfinch5961]

Howd you get the fan off?

[@ohjay7962]

Looks like an electric fan…. So no need to remove it

[@duramax.]

Old video buy bump with wrench on and mallet

[@andrewortiz687]

Some models have the fan some don’t.
You can borrow the fan wrench from oreillys

[@bobbybouchard753]

@@ohjay7962 not electric fan u can see the threads on it . These guys are great but not showing how the fan comes off is misleading

[@techone72893]

@@bobbybouchard753 As stated above, some models have mechanical fans, some have electric. This model has electric, which you can see at various points in the video. The pumps are made for both types, therefore they all have threads either way. The Tahoe/Suburban models of this year range mostly had electric fans.

[@carloshart2424]

Nice. Only one problem that u didn't mention. What was wrong with the old water pump??? Were the gaskets just leaking??? I would bet....that's all that was wrong

[@deandresmith513]

Probably mine is leaking and I think it’s a pretty common issue

[@willwhitehead3rd44]

Thanks 🎉😊

[@amboyle1417]

Can you do a video on how to replace a head gasket on this car please?

[@TRQ]

+Camden Boyle We're always cycling through common cars. We'll add this repair to our list! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ

[@shadowopsairman1583]

What about the Clutch fan?

[@Kohlwesson]

Thank you sir

[@oculophilia2130]

That light shining on your forearm made me think of a Bill Burr skit about how white people never discovered lotion. Telling this as your friend, my guy. Love your demonstrations.

[@limitless1430]

Thank you so much.

[@richardgarcia1753]

You didn't show how you took the fan blade out

[@fredfreeman2806]

Every other video says to Torque the bolts to 11ft pounds first and then 22 ft pounds

[@audley74]

I started to do until I noticed that that in this video he never removed the fan From the water pump.

[@41663]

Why does my rig have a fan and his don't? 😂

[@ArmandoOlivares-z3b]

You do not have to do all of this

[@buildit000]

I gave it a thumbs down because they put a stupid video in that lasted over a minute then another one all about a 71 year old dude making a 20 year old happy with his, as they put it, his “bat”. This ad stuff is absolutely making youtube unusable!
