Thanks to Jesse for making the intro and graphic for us to enjoy!!!
I just replaced the water pump on an 07 kia sportage and it is the timing belt that is bending me over.
Thank you Ray for making informational , educational videos, love the videos and advice, keep doing a great job , and wife unit
My wife’s car just had the same problem today. 2018 Yukon XL. Trying to self diagnose the issue and came across this video. Had it swapped in the afternoon with no issues! Thank you, YouTube University once again!
Finaly a gravy job, you were way over due!
I remember in the 80s my father's car having a sicker on the bottom side of the hood showing belt routing. Do they not do that anymore? (I don't think my Roobisoo has one…)
We had a three digit phone.
There should have been a map of how the belt is installed under the hood someplace. You should have looked up. It is on my 2000 Camaro.
Since when do you have to replace a belt? Because it got wet when it dries. It will not slip and squeal. Therefore, why don't you just change all the pulleys Cause they got wet as well.
One of the easiest water pump replacements I’ve ever seen.
I WOULD HAVE TORQUE THEM BOLTS BEFORE PUTTING IT ALL BACK TOGETHER .
Your a honest man but doing work for t&m in the long run won't give you a profit on your balance sheet
All your doing is working for wages
17:57 that's what she said
10 mm sockets on a U. S. built car? I thought the U. S. was imperial. Out of interest, which U. S. manufacturers still produce vehicles with imperial fasteners, and who use metric. With so many already using the metric system (SpaceX, currency, science, medical institutions etc.) will the U. S. convert to the metric system soon?
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
85K and a blown water pump.. ok. Dont build em like they used to. Cant you tell people to sutdafukup? You could say water is wet and some dbag would argue with you.
ray, I just did a 9 hour water pump and the new unit sounds like a airplane at high speeds. !!!!!!!!! 🙁 🙁
After seeing a few GMC vehicles worked on, I really doubt I would want to ever have one.
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
That's disturbing that water pump failed at only 80k miles.
Are you going to charge the customer the 3.5 hours like the book says?
Great video, Ray! Keep them coming!
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.
Pouring? More like Gushing, Ray! 😂
Early for water pump failure
I thought you were way too young to know what a rotary dial phone was
I use a brass wire wheel to remove gasket material and clean mating surface.
Book says 3.4 hrs. Ill only charge 3😂
That shop air compressor sound like a rods about to come loose
👍👍to rotary phones!
Why is my 3.6 Pentastar motor the biggest PIA to “Burp” compared to all these other motors ?
No belt placement guide on the hood/radiator ?
No torque spec for the wasser pump screws ?
GMC Puke-on
Hmm.. is it TIME to get an apprentice mechanic? When it gets to boring(as a mechanic) pulling all the junk off a car to get to the broken stuff maybe? Watching you do this.. fascinates me as to the amount of patience you have.. by now i would have a filing cabinet full of WTF memos on this issue to the Car Makers…(LOL)
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.
Should you have used the red dex-cool type coolant. You put in green ?
GMC? Generally Mediocre Car? The Yuccy, sorry, Yucon model. 🙂 Pretty pathetic milage on that water pump. Tension too tight on the belt?
The jerkiness of the handheld camera in this and many of your other videos is enough to make me dizzy and sick to the point of having to look away or turn the video of.
I hope you take this constructive criticism ok as I otherwise have enjoyed your videos for a few years now.
