Such a great video, simple & straight to the point.. I want to thank you for the knowledge you share, however im prefer to use a rubber type hammer to knock the waterpump. That hammer you're using trigger my anxiety to the red line ... 😂

Good info. Mine wasn't so easy coming out but if you have a swan neck tire iron an slide it between the triangle pully mount and the pump housing you can get it rocking from both sides and it pops right out. Also I didn't remove the mount but had enough room for quarter inch drive ratchet. Thanks

[@platnumvi5057]

Removing the mount give u all the space in the world once you do that... yes the water pump seal does get stuck so you gotta work it until it pop loose

Badass job thanks for the help

[@platnumvi5057]

No problem

[@rrednop3301]

Great video. Could you explain what you mean by "bleed the air out of the system".

[@platnumvi5057]

@rrednop3301 since u don't know .. once your finish fill the system up with coolant..leave the radiator cap off and let the car run and get hot...about 20 to 30 mins it should purge the air out of the inside of the car so it dont over heat due to trap air

[@hsvray]

My one is leaking at the other end of the engine, back side or the right side when you stand in front of car. It may be just a hose? Thanks awesome video by the way. I wish mine was leaking from where the water pump is positioned then I would know that it is indeed the water pump :)

[@QweinCooper]

look so easy but my experience says otherwise. lol i jus changed my thermostat all on my own but my car is still overheating, making the squealing noise when its started and when i accelerate. so im thinking water pump but ion know if i can do it on my own with my minimum tools lbs maybe if i had a power tool idk!

[@platnumvi5057]

@@QweinCooper squealing can be the belt ..and all you need is the same basic tools to replace the water pump if that what's wrong with it..I doesn't take much to do the water pump ..where are u located at?

Excelente trabajo

[@escanorgaming4993]

Great brother

[@mumofmohamed1470]

Bravo 👍🙏

[@pabloochoa1645]

Did you remove the other motor mount or just that side that the pump is on?

[@platnumvi5057]

Remove the motor mount just the side the pump is on And jack up the engine

[@austinharding9734]

am I tripping or is this video a mirror image? the belt an front cover aresuppose to be on the right side of the bay not the left!

[@platnumvi5057]

It's. Mirror didn't realize it but shouldn't make a diffrence ..same steps to get it done

[@terb9982]

How much you charge to do this replacement?

[@platnumvi5057]

$200

[@platnumvi5057]

It's cheaper than any shop price

[@kiadevnat]

Replaced water pump a week ago it started leaking again 9:24

[@platnumvi5057]

Did you double gasket it? Did you clean the area b4 installing the new water pump? Is the bolts tight? Those will make it Leake again...unless your block is crack .....can you get it pressure test and see where it's actually leaking from?

I think my water pump is leaking but idk how i can tell… i cant see the water pump just that side of the motors covered in coolant

[@platnumvi5057]

Mostlikely it's the water pump. But do this to check..fill up the system threw the coolant bottle. Put the cap back on and run the car until it's hot and thermostat open and fans kick on.. look at the hoses at the coolant bottle see if it leaks if not look for drips on the floor ...seem like it's a slow leak you got but if your seeing residue on the side of the engine it's about 99.9% it's the water pump

[@MileytheJeepV2]

@@platnumvi5057 its been a problem for a year now i couldnt find the leak so i thought it was heater core but now i see all rhat coolant… my guess is also that its the waterpump but id hate to cut into it and see that its not leaking yanno

[@platnumvi5057]

@@MileytheJeepV2 yes if it's a small leak it won't really show unless u pressure test it and force it 2 leak..and if your seeing the residu on the side replace the water pump that the only thing on that side that had coolant beside the coolant bottle and if it was the coolant. Bottle or hose it would of been obvious with that leak....it's very easy to replace the water pump.. you can do it..

@@MileytheJeepV2 those water pumps are very common for their leak ..I'm doing a ford transit right now as we text with the same engine in it..water pump is no good
