I have a 2006 scion tc and replaced my radiator and hoses and my water pump started leaking 😕 thank you for the video. Thankful I don't have to take out any motor mounts 😂

Nice video! Did your old water pump make any abnormal noise?

[@TheImprovisationCenter]

I didn't get anything that I felt was abnormal but the rotor appeared to have more play than the new one that would've led me to believe it was excessively worn.

What did you use to clean off the old gasket/RTV? Did you use any loctite on the bolts? Thanks

[@mikeross111]

Did you wait an hour before torquing down the bolts? Is that necessary? I'm using the same blue permatex sealant on mine...

[@TheImprovisationCenter]

Normally I give the stuff an overnight run before running, I picked back up the following morning with the testing.

What coolant does the car take?

[@TheImprovisationCenter]

@edgardoestrada313 any coolant that's recommended for Asian vehicles, usually red or yellow, prestone has a number of selections. I use generic yellow stuff from AZ, at least when all is working and I'm not losing coolant, otherwise it's whatever I get my hands on until car can be fixed.
