Thumbs up to the engineers who put the water pump in a sane place. Made of actual metal too, bonus.
One of the easiest water pump replacements I’ve ever seen.
Fairly straight forward R&R of the water pump, and easy diag. Nice to have those every once in a while. I'm sure that pump was making quite a racket before the leak started. The owner may be surprised at how quiet it is now. 😁
Hopefully he cut the engine right after that pump started screaming....if he did, that thing will keep rolling for another 100k with maintenance.
That water pump is like a 10 minute Job it right on top
In my LS1 in Australia, (similar engine), when my water pump failed, it failed instantly, and just lost the coolant. no prior warning. Bigger job in that motor, as need to replace the entire water pump/thermostat housing. Need to remove the throttle body too. Ray goes well.
Barely 5-yrs old and only 85k miles seems a bit early for a water pump replacement. At least the engineers made it an easy job. Nice video!
I've got 265k on my original Ford Explorer water pump! Won't be as easy to replace mine as this one was!
Could be the wife's car for transporting the kids and shopping. Might have a thousand hours of idling with AC on in front of the school on it.
That's why it takes 3.5 hours to change water pump, most of the time is figuring out which way the belt goes back.. :D
😂
For me, in the rust belt, it’s getting frozen bolts off without the fear of them snapping in the hole and the 1/2 or so of wait time for the Penetrator to soak in.
Not only do I remember rotary phones, but I also remember when the first two numbers of a 7-digit phone number were usually written with their alphabetic equivalents from the rotary dial. Example: a phone number back in the 1960s may have been IV3-7750, with the IV prefix standing for "Ivanhoe" (I am not making this up). I recently downloaded an old school rotary ringtone for my cell phone -- nostalgia is a powerful drug. 😆
Yep. There is a song by Glen Miller, Pennsylvania 6-5000.
SYcamore7-7416, another thing is remembering everyones number, hello information can you help me please.
In lowly Bismarck ND, (which is the capital btw) it was always Capital3-5000. (223-5000). We used to play games, like sticking our finger in the 9 spot and see if we can dial only a 7. I remember my aunt, a phone company employee with Bell Telephone (that's all there was before deregulation) getting the first push-button phone I ever saw. We all stood around it and marveled when it arrived. Such high tech. At that time only certain areas had push button systems. I remember my parents saying that we were still stuck with rotary. Speaking of deregulation. In college I hooked up a "bootleg" phone to the current phone line so we could have a phone in the basement as well as the main level. Totally illegal. I had bought the phone from another college student. The phone had questionable origins but it worked fine. Wish I still had that phone. It was a 50's rotary dial.
I'm impressed with all the space you had to change the pump with only having to remove the air intake
Not wrong there! As a VW owner I change water pump when I do the timing belt to hopefully mitigate having to do it between belts. Mainly coz to get the bloody pump out, the belt has to come off. Thanks VW.
@@brerobsym A lot of vehicles drive the water pump off the timing belt so its not just a VW thing
@randyedelen5770 i know, just like to have a go at one of my fave brands to drive. My old Holdens were the best to work on. Sit on radiator to tighten the head bolts down...... 😁
@@randyedelen5770I never really got that design decision. Back when non-interference engines existed, it had a logic to it. Neglect your water pump? We're going to stop your engine so you don't fry it! Now it's: neglect your water pump? Now you're going to need a new engine! The former happened to me on a '98 Camry. It was February, I figured the horrible noise might be the alternator. I knew it wasn't a big deal if I was wrong. :)
@@paulmoir4452 I guess like everything else these days water pump is supposed to be a
" lifetime " part.
Here is a trick to try when changing the crush washer on the oil plug. Take the cap off the oil and put a shop vac in the hole where the cap goes. That will allow you to go underneath the vehicle and unscrew the bolt and you won't spill a drop. Helps if you need to change the crush washer and don't want to change the oil
Hey Ray. This is Randy in Chattanooga, Tennessee. I can remember when you had to call the operator to make a long distance call; before there was “direct distance dialing ”.
On the other side of the pond, when it came in in the 1960s and before the initials "STD" had gotten hijacked for another mnemonic, we called it "Subscriber Trunk Dialing". Being able to connect your own call seemed kinda cool!
I remember only having to dial five numbers for a local call.
My parents use to have a party line in the 60's in Jersey!
My bro right by you in Hixson, I drove there twice from Long Island,NY, that 14 hour drive quite the killer, especially in a Jeep JKU Wrangler, but love it down there, by the waterfront. A doctor friend of his has a huge yacht docked there, went to visit him last August, and he was having a party on his boat, so much fun. I am going back again this summer, maybe do the NY -> Charlotte -> Chattanooga flight this time ;), he’s a 10 min drive from the airport. His house overlooks the mountains, beautiful view, we lop a few rounds from his various arms every now and then, something that would land me 3 years prison time in NY, if I decided to shoot in my backyard.
@@leegunter5223We had one down here in Macclenney, FL up until around 1980 - was all family, on our - redneckville ;)
Yes, I remember the rotary phones, it would take forever to call someone and you hoped that there weren't too many zeroes in the phone number. The scene with Joe Pesci and Chris Rock talking about phones from Lethal Weapon 4 is golden🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just replaced my waterpump on my 03 Tahoe 5.3. It was the whole unit design which took an 1 1/2 hours. Mine was the original at 195 K miles . This was 85k miles ? What junk! I'll keep the old . I'm wondering what those start/stop starters will cost!
Trick I use to install pump is screw in 2 exhaust studs and slide pump in vs aligning it and fighting with bolts.
Good move!!
Hi wife unit..the best hose is sold at home depot and made in usa contental brand life time warrant and the very best hose ever!
you do not often see a car crying but when you have a landrover you often have leaks so you are used to it lol ,but when always doing a belt i always take a photo of it first as you can never be to sure , thanks for the video
Ditto on the mower deck drive belt on a John Deere!
Wow that was pretty easy, looks like the alternator will be easy also. That's why longitudinal engines are easier to work on verses a transverse engine.
So True...
That's generally true, however, the water pump on my old '98 FWD V6 Ford Contour was even easier to replace than the one on this Yukon. 🙂
That is certainly a lot easier than the water pump that Kenny did on a Toyota Sequoia. It required dropping the cradle and many hours of work.
That's because Toyota water pumps don't go bad with only 85,000 miles and only 5 years old. My Toyota MR2 Spyder is 24 years old with 225,000 miles and still has the original water pump. It's never had a leak of any kind.
I have OCD pretty bad. When I do a water pump I also do all hoses, thermostat, idlers, tensioners and belts. I also flush and purge the cooling system so as not to contaminate the system with undistilled water.
16:40...The business end of the garden hose appears ready to go BOOM.
Like a hose “Aortic Dissection”
@@queensapphire7717
Sane thing that took out comedian actor John Ritter just 1 day apart when Johnny Cash left un in 2004.
Good video Ray. I think that was the first time I’ve seen that GM water pump. I like the simplicity of the design. Makes replacing quick & easy👍🏻
I had to change the water pump twice on a 2005 Yukon Denali, was different than in this video, but wasn't too bad. That type had the thermostat mounted into the water pump assembly. Now we have a 2014, have no idea (yet) what that has....
@thecuss6817 , I have an 03 silverado, 5.3. It has your type of water pump, very easy to replace, disconnect hoses and unbolt, as you have found. Mine went about four years ago, about 170,000 miles.
@@thecuss6817look at the valvecovers and intake, the 2014+ direct injection engines have a hilly valve cover, the 2000-2013 have the same style valve cover as your 2005.
Now I am sure a viewer / subscriber will buy you a new hose and spray nozzle now that they saw yours leaking... A small gift in return for your entertaining content every day
Easy pump replacement. When I was much younger I would pull pumps apart and replace the bearings only and re-gasket them, they worked fine.
I remember the wooden box phone we had with 4 neighbor party line. It had two dry cells that the phone company would change once a year.
You had a wooden box phone with *two* dry cells? Luxury! We had three rocks and a too-short bailing wire. (The extra rock was just-in-case.)
I do cars probably has one of those water pumps ready to ship!
In the 90s I had a 1987 Taurus with the 3.0 and I knew something was up when one day I was suddenly having trouble turning right and hearing minor belt squeak. Turns out the water pump was leaking right on the crank pulley which make the belt almost stop since the crank pulley was slippery from the anti-freeze.
I not only remember rotary phones, I remember the die cast rotary phones with non-coiled cords being the "old" version. Of course I'm old.
Morning Ray. We have a bleeder. Let’s find out what needs fixing.
Wow!! Looking good Loren. Good idea Ray, to have the Wife Unit make an appearance on each episode. Good job on the water pump, Ray. Never seen one like that before, easy repair.
Glad to see a new video. Been binge watching, and glad to see new content. Keep up the exceptional work and videos you provide. Educational, informational, and entertaining. I know many including myself. Welder and diesel engine mechanic, for a small shipyard.. lots of Caterpillar engines to work on. You videos are right up my alley. Thanks again.
Many years ago I used to work for Telecom Australia back in the 1970s and 80s and working in the Telephone Exchange the equipment was called STEP BY STEP and you could actually hear people dialing numbers by the machinery moving sometimes when working at night in the exchange it was very eerie
Most comical part: “I am used to general motors treachery”
yep i Shure do remember the rotary phone.
The fun part was trying to speed dial on a rotary phone , while calling a radio station trying to win free concert tickets . The D J answers and tells you that you are the #3 caller and the #7 caller wins . You have to hang up and try again .
Congratulations to the driver for not overheating the engine.
So nice to see a basic job done without the need to dismantle half the engine - eg: typical modern engine spark-plug replacement. NICE!
These videos make me miss summer☀️. Hey Ray.
Yay another Ray!
Of sunshine 😂
It is a true testament of your integrity that you do what is necessary to get the customer back on the road while trying to keep the cost as low as possible 👏👏👏
He does not do low cost. He goes by the book to charge customers. He does no hook up. Nor is he trying to help. He does the videos to make more money from customers too. Not too help
Personally, I would have washed the serpentine belt off with soapy water and put it back on. It wasn’t hurt at all. Those belts are really durable. I’m at 427K + on my Duramax and still running the original belt.
A buddy of mine has been piping his smoke machine into the radiator to locate leaks... it works pretty good.
If you flush, refill, blead and reassemble, then 3 hrs will be a good time.
Pretty slick in and out
Easily when you know what you’re doing
Cheers from Nova Scotia
Ray sometimes you get the re comment or two. I would say if you put the pump together and it doesn’t leak you did great job Have a good day Ray I missed this video so I had 2 today. You fixed the leak immediate satisfaction ,Nice
I change the water pump from corolla 2005 last week at 225,357 miles, it was the original one last 19 years.
A nice easy pump replacement! Fun to watch. BTW, looks like your new video light is giving you rolling shutter artifacts.
I noticed. I was using a different drop light under the hood this time.
I remember rotary phones Ray🤣, yes I AM that old, also remember party lines and operators.😁 @13:50 ding, fries are done🤣.
I wish the water pump on my car was that easy. Nice job sir! 👍👍
Customer brought us an after market Azone or O'Reilly pump. Installed pump & filled coolant. Pump gasket surface not level & leaked immediately. They didn't actually save any money! Cost extra to do if twice & no warranty on 2nd pump install?! Yeah, no bueno!
In the late 70's some people had rotary phones with like 50ft of line on them so they could walk all over the house and inevitably it would become a giant tangled horrendous mess. I still miss the days before cellphones though
This water pump is one of the most accessible I've ever seen.
The one on my old 1998 V6 Ford Contour was even easier. 😁
@@craigcraigster4999What, is yours held on with velcro?
@@jimdavis6833Double-sided tape. 😎
Talking about the abrasiveness of the shift pads, one job i had we used a 4 inch round pad on a grinder to "grind" away and give a course polish look to aluminum welds. It will EAT aluminum for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and 4th meal. Then be so worn out they make fun frisbees to toss at the trash can
Admirable diligence and down-to-earth personality. Congratulations!
wow that's already trashed... great quality ur making GMC
My 2003 Ford has the original water pump. It still doing just fine.
If you tighten that loose clamp halfway, you have left it in 50% better shape than before.
I hope Eric sees a clip of that water pump, he would love it.
Water pumps were very faulty on 73 CJ5 Jeeps, I recall replacing the water pump at the side of the road, at the curb, once out in the boonies. good thing the pump was relatively easy to remove and install, because it had to happen frequently.
We had a 4 household “party line” phone when I was younger.
I love little jobs like this. that was a fairly easy change out.
Used to use my grandparents wooden hand crank phone all the time and had to deal with party lines. I’m old. 😢
Nothing like a quick and simple job love when those roll into the shop
I grew up with not only a rotary phone, but we also had a party line. There are videos on CZcams of giving kids a rotary phone and them trying to figure out how to use it.
Believe it or not. You can still get a "party" line. I know of a few businesses that use that because the owners are too cheap to buy 2 lines. If the customer dials the number for business A the phone rings with 2 shorts. If the customer wants business B they dial the second number and it rings to the same building as 2 longs. It's screwy, but cheapskates don't want to buy a system when something like this just adds a small amount to their landline bills for a single line. Depending on the ring, they answer the phone as business A or B.
You may remember rotary phones, but do you remember party lines? I grew up with one!
Grew up with rotary phones and one part of OK had a party line in the early 70s when I was a kid.
I was born 9/16/61. In E ND, we had 3-digit dialing (rotary-dial!!) until about '72?? Then it went to 7-digit dialing. Took quite a while if someone had "9's" in their new #!
In the mid-70's, a NW-Bell phone office was built in town, & conversion to touch-tone dialing began!!
Good job on the shorter video Ray!‘
I use a brass wire wheel to remove gasket material and clean mating surface.
Whole lot easier than the old 350 style water pumps with the fan attached. Havnt had to do one of those yet. Im retired only work on mine family and friends stuff now 😊 my new truck is a 2019 ram 350 hemi. Looking for tips on that when it needs work. 😅 that water pumps got to be smartest thing ive seen a engineer come up with though.
Well done 👍
I owned a 2004 Chevy Impala LS that was 18 before being T-Boned, everything under the Hood was Original except the Battery and Plugs, Water Pump, Fuel Pump Alternator was never replaced...
Great video, Ray! Keep them coming!
Sweet video Ray.... Nice to know the bolts for the water pump are behind the pulley wheel.... 😮
What happened to that polishing wheel with the rubber fingers? You used to use that all the time before the scotchbright wheel.
All good Ray and Lauren and not forgetting Dave
That was an easy replacement, Good Job!
I've never seen that design before. Good that it's easy to replace. I'm surprised the owner never noticed the grinding noise or the coolant to gush out like that.
Magnetic sockets would work perfectly there.
Ray beats the book time again !
You should get the concrete guys to do YT videos on what they are making.
Never lost a drop of coolant in my '70 Beetle!
Check your blinker fluid?
You’d have a major problem if you did😂
It is a pain in the butt changing that thermostat .
Bet you leak oil tho 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@RainmanRaysRepairs 👍Bet you that you are correct!
Hi Ray and wife unit Dave and you’re new employee just finished watching replace water pump very awesome and as always you all be safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸
One of the easier water pumps to replace 😊
The hot weather in Florida is very hard on cars!
Use to have rotary phone at work it was always funny when young adults and below to use the phone they would just stare at the dail and then had to explain to them how to use it god bless the shop and all of your 10:05
Check the trunk for a box of Diapers!(i have no idea why anyone wants an SUV for a daily driver.. as its expensive to operate GMC Yukon is basically a REALLY cheaply built vehicle too.
Nice easy repair, that doesn't happen very often these days.
we had a couple rotary phones, both wall mounted and the same style but one yellow one brown.
Rainman it happens to me at work also and it’s fun when it does
I've changed an LS-1 and LS-3 water pump, but nothing on the newer DI engines. I didn't realize the pump came out of the housing like that. I actually own a 17 Tahoe with a 5.3, but haven't had to tackle this one yet. I'm a little surprised GM didn't just make that all one unit that you have to replace to save costs on manufacturing, but that looks like a piece of cake.
I really do like the gen v platform, honestly feels like its easier to work on than gen 3/4
This is what i love about my 15 sierra u dont have to disassemble the front of the motor to fix the pump
Rotary phone ! in the UK they went ring ring, in the US they went riiiing riiiiing but the best phone is always the Doobye Doobyedoo one !! we need the phone ring back Ray! or Peter for a cameo appearance ! Thanks Ray for the Videos
Could always test the coolant with a hydrometer check it’s freezing point
It was nice to see a in out job. Even more fun to see thenit pickers tell you everything you supposedly did wrong
lol my father-in-law had a jeep patriot ... holy moly that serpentine belt was a nightmare.
That water pump is actually easier to change than the old style V8's that bolted into the engine block !
These pump gaskets leave a coating on the aluminum that is very hard to scrape off with tools or blades . The way you have done it is the easiest and the way I did mine too .
Wouldn't you won't to setup an air compressor manifold on the back wall so, you aren't robbing air hose from other's that are needing air? Good video!
Yikes, leaking 😮 good morning Mr Ray hope y'all have a great day
I did this exact job about a week ago same thing walking water pump
good day ray
As I recall, GM uses Dexcool, an OAT coolant which is an orangish color. That looked like the old green coolant which would be ethylene glycol. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.
Always nice to see Lauren.
Who designed that stupid pulley? Those engineers must laugh at GM when they accept their designs.
The dealer would do just what you did and charge the full 4 hours. I'll never own another GM product.
The point being why sell you a water pump when they can sell you a pulley too. GM isn't the only culprit.
I needed a fix on my Terrain one time, and I couldn't get into the dealership(which turned out to be a good thing). I was forced to take it to another good mechanic....they told me that GM charges you for the hours, despite not doing that much work. This was last June; I sold it the next month. They used to be great, but not anymore.
GM are amongst the worst for this sort of thing, more and more manufacturers deliberately engineer parts that have weak points or are overley complex in the name of cost cutting. A prime example is the GM 1.8L Ecotec engine - the cooling system design has many fail points, they thought a plastic combined thermostat/ temp sensor housing mated directly to the cylinder head was a real smart idea😂
Amazing diagnostics!!! NASA should be recruiting you to help them out! Das a vewy gud video.
RAY! On another thought, have you seen the Gail Banks MONSTER Duramax engine dyno? The one with the twin turbo supercharged Duramax? He hits 1200 HP after dialing down the supercharger. Interesting results. I strongly suggest watching. That guy really knows what he's doing. Kepp up the god work, sir. Can't wait to see the final results of the Northstar DTS. SLAYER! 🤘
That thing is an ABSOLUTE Beast!!! I’ve seen it in real life and it’s impressive!!!
A cool coolant system repair.
An easy replacement. There's that giant hüfti-box intake horn that I got rid of on my truck. Made room for a catch can too.
