2010 v6 Camaro water pump and thermostat replacement

[@jezzyjean1880]

Thank you this helps so much. If you doing this Get you a flexible extension and any cheap electric wrench to make this 2-3 hours if not days project to a 30 mn project and save yourself a lot of hassle. One more thing if you just changing the thermostat you don’t need the pipe out cause it’s near impossible to do so you can easily tilt the pipe once you got the 2 10 mm that’s on the thermostat housing off that secure the bigger pipe and change the thermostat from the side without pulling the pipe out.

[@dasher4117]

It’s relatively easy to pry that pipe out with a small-ish screwdriver. Just gotta be careful not to pry too hard haha

Say bro thank you for your help. Finally found a video that doesn't try to over explain everything and confusing the hell out of you. You are the man!

Thx🫡

I’ve been looking for videos and the closest I got to finding where it was at was from a video where a guy had more background music than actual info 😂 Thank you so much!

[@shuntawolf]

Short and sweet and simply stupid to the point.... Nice!!!! Better than some I've seen tonight for sure!!!! I LIKE the "move the foam out the way and there it is"!!!! Now to figure out if I can get to it all without pulling the intake, but if it's only a few bolts then may just do it anyway... Not my car but a customers ... Good job!

Thanks for the help at the 1:30 mark. You showed those gaskets, were you abke to find the and know what they are called.mine is leaking from the bottom

Hey do you have a name for those gaskets or part number by chance for the o ring gasket?

[@kewlbud8868]

@@wjdiv1 A little side note if you ever remake this video for some reason I had a hellof a time getting the metal pipe broke loose from the thermostat housing, but putting the bolts back in to hold the housing in place, you're able to wiggle the pipe up and down and easily break the seal the o-ring creates and than the pipe slides out of the housing like butter!

Bro how did u get the new thermostat in

[@JohnSmith-lf8kg]

How did you remove the second bolt in the back that holds the metal pipe? I'm having a hard time removing it. Its stuck on as hell and won't move.

[@wjdiv1]

I don't know if yours has been removed before and is crossed but try leave top bolt in to give yourself more leverage

[@kvngspectra7517]

@@toody9349 so look if you buy a thermostat from autozone it’s doesn’t come with anything but if you get one from oreillys it’s comes with this really hard cardboard in the shape of a circle and you can use that to push down on it

[@IamYoutubecertified]

I replaced the thermostat on the camaro and now I have a leak in the rear. I believe it's coming from the thermostat housing. When I assembled it the first time I jist replaced the gaskets (it leaked) I took it apart and re assembled it but this this time I used the gray gasket maker and it still leaking back there. Any ideas on what i should look?

[@wjdiv1]

I took my thermostat housing off the pipe to replace my thermostat but first I removed the two bracket bolts for the metal radiator hose to give me room for alignment I don't know if u did or didn't just throwing ideas. Did u lock thermostat into housing? Is there any chance something could be misaligned the gasket should be adequate without sealing. Are u sure ur leaking in the back?

[@gregwilcox1696]

where and what is the water outlet? they said my water outlet seal is leaking and 3 pipes in the rear of the motor. Thanks

[@wjdiv1]

I believe the pipe ur speaking about is in the front with the two gaskets on it. In the video its around the 2 min mark. In regard to the three pipes in the back I only saw the one with the thermostat attached. Hope it helps.

Yooo I need your help. I hit a tree stump which put messed my radiator up. The car kept running hot and I kept putting water in it to cool down. So I ended up replacing my radiator. It’s not leaking water anymore but it continues to run hot after 3 min of driving. Is it the thermostat or what is it?

[@wjdiv1]

Check the little black expansion tank bolted to frame on the passenger side, they tend to fail if the car over heats

[@wjdiv1]

Also check fluid level and with that try to burp system of air bubbles hope that helps you

[@michaelgladney9657]

@@wjdiv1 how do you burp the air bubbles and what expansion tank lol . Please get back with me

[@wjdiv1]

@@michaelgladney9657 easiest way to get air out is to slightly raise front of car when refilling squeezing radiator hoses to help dislodge air from inside coolant system. There is a black expansion tank or reservoir bolted behind the passenger wheel behind wheel well cover that will cause car to overheat due to a plastic tab breaking loose allowing it to leak

The pipe is bolted to the housing, u may have to put the housing back in the original position to loosen that connecting bolt then remove pipe and housing

if you just changing the thermostat you don’t need the pipe out cause it’s near impossible to do so you can easily tilt the pipe for the thermostat to face up once you got the 2 10 mm that’s on the thermostat housing off and a 15mn a 13mn that secure the pipe and change the thermostat from the side without pulling the pipe out.
