Timing Belt and Water Pump Replacement on my 2004 Mitsubishi Montero.

[@Scottadamsfan3481]

Thank you so much , my 06 has 208k miles and I have done all the fluids thanks to your motivational videos! Now I want to make sure I don’t need to do this My timing belt looks dirty and dry from the window

[@jime.angulo4151]

no, the seal needs replacement.

[@Scottadamsfan3481]

I am new to doing mechanical work but I am so impressed and also a little discouraged because i feel I will never get to your level ! I bought my Montero with 196k miles and kept it running good so far to 208k miles over 8 months I did the transmission fluid , coolant flush , front and rear diff , transfer case , oil , and I am afraid to try something this big but I am going to keep learning and maybe eventually get to this level Planning and research is everything!

[@jime.angulo4151]

Keep learning, send me a message when you are in a bind, and I'll try to help out if possible.

Muchas gracias por estos videos! They are super instructive! I really appreciate the takes where you actually show how to do the jobs! Is hard for people like me that is starting to learn how to do these repairs to even imagine how to do the things when they are just mentioned and then cut and appear all done! Thanks for making sure on showing us how to get it done!

[@jime.angulo4151]

Thank You!

thank you very much for share this process, it is clear. :) your tecnic. common sense.. I could tell you that sometimes is the less used!.. saludos desde CDMX.

Saludos, Gracias!

Peace of mind purposes! I know the feeling ! Every day I think and wonder about my Montero!😊

[@toddteasdale1554]

Excellent video. Montero's have many annoying "tricks" when working on them. Simple things like changing RHS plugs LOL. Anyway, some tricks I found were the crank angle sensor has a U shaped groove that sits either side of the crank angle timing plate (behind the crank pulley). At TDC the sensor is front and rear of the plate and cant be removed unless plate is rotated to clear it and likewise to reinstall the plate as I think you saw. Ok if neither is removed. Second trick is the accessory plate can't be removed due to 1 AC bolt. It is the one between C and the lower B bolts you show at the 35 minute mark. If you use a thin blade on a angle grinder and cut the AC mount ear off you will save 4 hours of work as no need to remove PS pump or aircon pump as you can now simply pull out accessory plate. Keep the little ear and use like a washer to put bolt back in. It does bugger all anyway. Goodluck to all who work on these demons 😂

[@jime.angulo4151]

Thanks! that is a really good tip. I'll keep that in mind for next time.

Great Job, very helpful Jim. I really appreciate your work and you sharing the installation. I REQUIRE my 2 young adult sons to watch your channel. One has a 2002 Montero Sport 4x4 V6 that we do ALL the work on together. We just completed the timing belt and water pump after watching your great informative video. He only uses the Montero to pull his boat to Lake Mead 5 or 6 times a year from Las Vegas and with189,000 still runs and drives GREAT. You help so many.......Thanks again. "HP" Just for info, I lived in Manhattan Beach just down the road from you prior to retiring and moving to Las Vegas.

[@jime.angulo4151]

That's awesome! thank you so much for your nice comment.

[@JCCENTENO-w5d]

Thanks for the video, excelente gracias. I just got a 2002 montero limited, the previous owner mechanic did all this work before I bought the Montero, thanks

[@jime.angulo4151]

Great to hear!

[@johnnynunez4477]

I want to thank you for your video's I got the o-ring job done successfully and now I'm watching your timing video I would love to get this done as well but not until I watch it a few times if it wasn't for your videos I wouldn't even attempt these jobs so thanks again

[@jime.angulo4151]

Thank you! this comment inspires me to make more videos.

Saludos desde Argentina. Muy interesante tu canal,justamente estoy reparando una MItsubishi Montero XLS 2001, V6 3500. Me ayudan muchos los videos. Gracias.

[@jime.angulo4151]

Gracias y felicidades por su nuevo liderasgo. Arriba la libertad carajo!

[@maximo-imp]

@@jime.angulo4151 Hola Jaime. Gracias por todo. ¿Hay manera de contactarme contigo?. Estoy necesitando el manual de taller de la XLS 3500 y solo consigo el de la Full. Por ejemplo no encuentro la central de la alarma de la camioneta.

[@Scottadamsfan3481]

I am going to focus on getting my Montero clean underneath and in engine bay then try to replace all the little simple things like hoses that are leaking / the transmission lines I noticed barely leak

[@jime.angulo4151]

Good idea, you'll save yourself some time and stress if you do.

[@johnnynunez4477]

Have you made a video on how to remove the transmission? Thank you for your videos they're very helpful

[@jime.angulo4151]

No, I have not. But seems like it would no be so difficult.

[@dapolimagic]

Thanks for putting all videos in one. It helps a lot. Do you mind sharing what you ended up using for insulation of timing cover ? A link will help.

[@jime.angulo4151]

I used window screen spline you can easily find it on Amazon or the Home depot.

[@dapolimagic]

Thanks for sharing. I ended up using the valve cover gasket cut in half.@@jime.angulo4151

[@jime.angulo4151]

@@dapolimagic Nice! that's a good idea!

[@titovs2100]

Thanks for sharing this video. Keep posting Montero content!!! I need to work on mine🤐🤐🤐.😭

[@jime.angulo4151]

sure, will do. What kind of topics would you like to see?

[@Scottadamsfan3481]

Sorry last question- what code reader do you recommend I need to chase down a check engine light and abs/ traction control light

[@jime.angulo4151]

I have the OTC one which only reads engine stuff, I wish it could read ABS and Transmission data.

[@Scottadamsfan3481]

My window got lost accidentally I dropped it at the sand mine I work at and never found it unfortunately Should I put duct tape over the hole until I find a replacement?

[@jime.angulo4151]

yes
