I spent this past Saturday & Sunday changing the water pump on my imaginary wife's tractor. A simple project that grew and grew the more I worked on it! I've always wondered who the genius was that figured out to put a weep hole in a water pump so that you knew your seal failed? Such a great idea!!!!

[@OutlawEdge]

Joe Jewett do we ever get to meet your imaginary wife? 😂🤣😜

[@romper4444]

​@@OutlawEdgeshes at my house right now, she can't walk for the time being tho.

[@nathanmarsala3099]

Thanks bud. Very descriptive video. I was hoping I wasn't going to have to take off that bracket.

[@homespuntools2115]

Hey Arco and Heidi , thanks for the video . Don't know much about those new style motors ,guess I need to get with the program . That car show in Dryden I mentioned isn't going to happen latest word I heard . Guess one day I'll see that little purple roadster for real ! Fourth of July isn't far away , Canada's birthday is July 1st ... this year is going so fast brother !

[@Oldbutschooled]

Wish you showed how to remove shroud without removing fan ?

[@hulkhogan2113]

Nice video, a lot less bullshitting than most.

[@RonnieMahnke]

Thank very much excel

[@1234qwer1002]

I'm going to do this this weekend I'm watching your video to get some advice. But I'm curious that all that plastic do I have to put that one plastic piece that goes over the white fan the first piece you took off in the video. I feel like that creates air restriction.

[@OutlawEdge]

I don’t think it would hurt anything but why u wanna leave that part off?

[@1234qwer1002]

I'm not a car guy. I was kind of just asking if it would make the truck run better

[@1234qwer1002]

I kind of feel like it traps hot air

[@NZMOPAR]

That's a cool tool never seen one of those . .

[@harveymartin4821]

where do i buy the tool u use for takeing the hoze off

[@OutlawEdge]

@@harveymartin4821 they sell them on Amazon or oreilleys Autoparts store

[@joshuasanchez9851]

I have one question..I have a 6.0 that is fluctuating on the tempature.. would that be a thermostat going out or the water pump?

[@OutlawEdge]

Most of the time the fins inside the waterpump rot off or crack and fall off. That would be the first thing I would check or change 👍 and since you’re doing the water pump and new antifreeze I would also change the thermostat just to be safe. Also flush your system and make sure that your heater core is flushed out very well. Hope that helps.

[@joshuasanchez9851]

Recommendation is to change all of the pump and the thermostat together?

[@OutlawEdge]

Yes I definitely would change both. I’ve seen so many of those that the water pump fell apart and pieces of the water pump were stuck in the thermostat holding it closed or holding it open so the car would either overheat or would never build heat. So the best thing to do would be change the thermostat while you are also changing the water pump.

[@joshuasanchez9851]

Would there be a way I can contact you better?

[@OutlawEdge]

Send me an email [e-mail]

[@andreyvolf6217]

Yoooo , new video☺. Very goooood bro☺. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍. A'm a shewi k5 restavraishion . God frends!

[@MadStiles]

Done a few of those lol great video!

[@donaldchaplin2564]

Cool video. Wasn't aware they would sell you internal parts for that water pump. Could've saved some cash down through the years. I know this post is pretty old, but what's the name of the device you used for compressing the hose clamp. If anybody knows I would appreciate it. My buddy's Chevy 2500 just had the pump start blowing water out really bad. He's already bought the pump. Maybe next time. Thsnks again for a great video with a few tricks I didn't know. God bless.

[@OutlawEdge]

Its called a flexible hose clamp tool. They have a couple really nice kits on Amazon that have a bunch of different styles in one kit. Hope that helps I really appreciate you watching my video and the nice comments take care brother

[@matthewpickard3567]

Did you buy a new water pump or just replace the gaskets in the existing pump?

[@OutlawEdge]

We had a new waterpump delivered from carquest auto parts 👍 i never rebuild them because the bearings are always damaged. Thanks for watching

[@joshuamiller3400]

Where do I buy that hub holder ?

[@OutlawEdge]

I made that tool but u can buy them at autoparts stores. Its a GM fan clutch removal tool 👍

[@erice9536]

Mine just let go at 285K. Pretty easy job all in all.

[@johnpetitta4326]

Hand grinder spacer wrench

[@whoiswaynereynolds5457]

Haha they put a second hose clamp because they stretched the stock clamp with channel locks and it leaked. 🤣

[@martysmith7789]

I am now dumber since I've watched this video

[@OutlawEdge]

Thanks for watching hope thats a compliment lol 😆

[@PeerlessMechanicalLLC]

Billy Madison, baby!!! Hahahaha

[@FEAZAvto]

[@SawBossMS461-og9hl]

[@usarmy500]

So basically if my water pump blows might as well put a cam in it since I’m there already

[@OutlawEdge]

Hell yes! 👍 😆🤣😂🫡🇺🇸
