How to Replave Ford Escape V6 Water Pump

how to replace, pump and belt install

[@leadinganation]

Thank you for this. Beware do not use big zip ties they will cut the belt. I learned this the hard way. Use the size the guy does and you'll have no problem. Saved me 860 dollars.

[@user-wv-6pds]

That was a a very good work. Specially working with one hand on the job and the other hand holding up on your views. Thank you and good job, again.

[@retouchMOJO]

Other videos have you removing the cam pull, but it's completely unnecessary so thanks you. BUT the best take away from your video is the zip tie trick for putting the belt back on... That was awesome!

[@crazysexycool180]

i hate those type belts

[@ImdiekeFamily]

For your vehicle yes....but kind of unfortunately, they they made a few different styles with the same year. Mine, I have to pull the cam pulley, because it covers the power steering bolt access.

[@r.i.a.n.63]

Excellent video. I was getting so annoyed seeing people pulling the cam pulley to do this job. Props to you for doing most of this one handed too lol. And you gave me a reason to go buy a new tool “see honey, he says I need that spring clamp tool to fix your car”.

[@juanrodriguez-st2oq]

How about the thermostat? Would it not be a good idea to change it when you replace the pump?

[@sannybingco2231]

This is what I need to do now. Thanks for this video bro. It’s really helpful.

[@crazysexycool180]

No problem 👍

[@charless7670]

Just heading out to do mine. Thanks for your video!

[@kellyrogers7066]

Thank you!!! Does one need to Bleed out the Air of the Coolant System??

[@Juggalo559]

Can you tell us where the cylinder head temperature sensor is located i have the same engine and cant find a video or picture

[@008Sercanu]

Hey, thanks for the video. What brand is the hose clamp tool, and where did you get it from ?

[@beachbumblog]

Thanks for posting this. I'm curious if you happen to remember the mileage you got out of yours? I have one with 110k where it's starting to squeak pretty good, and looks like some movement happening off that cam shaft pulley but was confirming more about it. My belt is super dirty so going to clean it up and check the condition more but probably just time anyways.

[@robertohernandez5266]

Thank you for posting this video.

[@hoopzballa]

i know this is old, but did you have to drain the coolant from the radiator first? or simply keeping the hose up so the coolant would not flow out.

[@jerryrockney90]

replacement of Water Pump went smoothly; but antifreeze empties from system as soon as I start engine up; in frustration, I call a mechanic I know (& use) at that point to see what is happening; he replies that the new pump must be defective; I can't see exactly where the antifreeze is leaking from, but it appears it's coming from directly behind or below the new pump; I noticed that there is a weep hole in pump housing directly above the lower right bolt; he replied that the fluid will escape through this weep hole if the pump is defective; I am taking the pump back to exchange it, but can you explain how the fluid will flow through that weep hole; I am confused on how that happens ( & frustrated that I have to do this replacement again;)

[@Nfinitly5]

I was wondering Can you a 50/50 coolant after draining the coolant?

[@jeanettawhite1431]

He'll what the name of the tool you use for unscrew the screws with? Nice Video

[@mechanicandskills7215]

Excellent thanks bro

[@timdoyle9981]

Just found a 2002 going cheap using water they say possible cracked head. Perhaps its something simple like this but I'm not sure if there's water in the oil it's too far away for a quick check over

[@amarilocass7633]

My belt keeps popping off on the water pump on a 2008 Mercury mariner 3.0 not right away over like a months time this is the fourth belt belt I look like a small only goes by though cam pulley pulley

[@juanrodriguez-st2oq]

Do you think Because it did not spin it broke the belt?

[@robertroland1616]

What is the size of the bolts your taking out??

[@tw6196]

Is there a weep hole on this pump?

[@maxss9005]

You showed zip tie trick to put the belt back on to the new water pump ,but how to take them off in the beginning. What is the trick on that one.

[@mcselasie]

Cut it lol. You wont be able to reuse it anyways

[@naquangraham4912]

Anyone know what size are the bolts?

[@1974geary]

Thanks

[@frende4812]

[@jerryrockney90]

[@chuckyray23]

Whats the torque for the water pump bolts?

[@zoneonthetrack4499]

Same

[@sosick2005]

What were the symptoms of the seized pump?? Over heating, noise etc

[@crazysexycool180]

yep

[@siphilipe]

However, the question for me is how to remove the belt? Thanks!

[@beachbumblog]

Scissors :)

[@anthonyharris5306]

how do you remove the belt though

[@davidmcallister4564]

Cut it, install new belt with new pump.

[@ajamesbertman]

Anyone find torque specs?

[@dorotheataylor7089]

My daughter is having this done at Firestone, they say they can't refuse coolant and she needs to also get a system flush as a result of this repair and a oil change....... is this true? PLEASE PLEASE HELP! 🙏

[@scout13fox]

I know this is already a couple of months past, but you absolutely should perform an oil change after completing this repair. This is especially true when you don't know how hot it got or how long the engine was hot. It usually "cooks" some of the oil. Consider it a cheap oil change since it's already in the shop and you won't have to make a separate trip later. The warranty on the water pump "requires" the coolant flush and refill with new. DIY people don't often do it, but should.

[@crazysexycool180]

new coolant yes oil change is not required for this job. Thanks for watching , please like, share, and subscribe
