How to replace a water pump on a Toyota 200 series VDJ200R

[@shihan74]

I decided to have a go at this as well and just in case anyone else wants to know the second gasket is called a water outlet gasket and on most VDJ200's is part no 16343-51010 (isn't included with the oem pump). After I put it back together, mine was weaping a little bit so I replaced it. In Aust, it was a $3 part (and shipping was $16 if you cant pick up). Also, thanks for the awesome instructional video, I had so much more hasstle getting the fan hub off though, was very tedious.

Absolute legend! Saved me a heap of time and money. I had an air bubble in my radiator after I finished topping up the coolant, the heater would run, just let her idle for half hour and it’s all good.

Great video - this is on my "to do" list and this gives me confidence to tackle it on my own!

Excellent commentary and camera work thank you

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

All good mate

[@johndale6931]

Awesome How-To mate, have one out in the shed that I've just had to rip the radiator out of, so this should make it a bit easier!!

Great video mate and very helpful guide for replacing a water pump. Cheers

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

Thanks mate 👍

Thought Id ad a tip to make things even easier. If you remove the 2 studs with a 5mm double hex socket ,you wont need to remove the thermostat tube bolts from the block . I do these in about an hour .

[@Keithygeorge]

Thanks mate, red Hot tip.

[@itsnotfunny8257]

did it today the same way, it was 7 mm e torx stud.

Nice work bud, subscribed. Hopefully you get a few more and keep making good vids

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

Hey dude thanks mate Dirty thumbs up 👍

[@danielb8901]

Great video mate many thanks. Oh, one question I noticed that the catch can hoses were running toward to the front of the vehicle where has he got the catch can mounted as I have not much room under the bonnett? Perhaps that would be a great video as many cannot afford hundreds on a kit.

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

Cheers mate Yeah my mate had to run his catch can up the front due to having batteries, filters etc under the bonnet area haha

[@Keithygeorge]

Awesome video. Thanks for the time and effort making and uploading. I'm doing a 76 series soon. Should be very close to the same.
