Awesome demonstration! You made it look super easy

I like this guy. Great voice and no nonsense.

[@ronegan2840]

“You’re gonna want a little air chisel tool like this and just spin it right off of there” Sure, let me see…which one should I use?

[@todaytriper]

I used a chisel and hammer and tap each flat till it breaks lose

[@KIKOANGELESPARZA]

[@awjenning]

One of the very best auto repair how to's I've seen. Thank you

[@tonyvtc3]

Sir I want to thank you so much for this video. I have a 2009 Explorer with 4.0 v6 and I did it and no major issues other trying to align that gasket. I used an adhesive to hold the gasket in place and bingo smooth as a bell to install. I did not have a inch pound wrench but I I have a foot pound wrench, so I converted to foot pound and went a bit over but they are torqued equally etc etc. I’m back on the road sir. Thank you again.

Wow probably the best video I've ever seen for fixing anything on a vehicle quality of filming advice is right spot on thank you very muchy .👍👍👍 my replacement went so smoothly. Thanks One thing I did do is drop the cap psi to 16 found one at auto zone the pressure relief type to with the red lever .

Thank you lots! I put my water pump into my 06 Ford Explorer 4×4 it took a while but it done!! 😆

[@draqon09]

I’m About to do an 06 or make an attempt to… that dam fan clutch is gonna be my headache and the hardest part for me.. after that it’s gonna be smooth sailing for me… just need to know if I need a gasket sealer because I see you did not use one , but I also am assuming that yours is an actual motorcraft pump and not an autozone special lol

[@cryptkeepervi]

Great video how much a job like this cost

[@abbasfalah797]

greating U from iraq

[@ZaeBot-cy2gj]

What should i use if i dont have air chisel tool

[@mattprevatt3669]

What happens when I don’t use the vacuum and there’s air in it? Will it cause and overheat??

[@eegg6954]

Don't know what car this is, but the 2010 water pump has no hoses and just four bolts. It uses a rubber 'o' ring instead of the gasket. A bit easier.

[@jasondoolin6476]

Annnnd there went the red connecter tab. Sob’s break every time

[@freshmen3242]

I need you to work on my car for real
