@RichardDraper-x2s really the hardest part is the 4 bolts on the backside. As long as you get a good bite, they'll come right out! I hope your fix your shit!
You made it look easy, my heat shield bolts came off easy, now I'm stuck at trying to get the air tube off, specifically the bottom 10 mil on the drivers side, cant get any leverage on a wrench and three inch rachet extension too short, any suggestions? Guess I'll shop around for another tool.
That's not the thermostat housing, it's the coolant outlet. The thermostat housing is on the other end of the engine. My god you don't even know what part your replacing.
After removing I realized there's no thermostat, and then was informed by someone nicer than you that it was called the coolant bypass hose, but thank you for letting me know even if it was in a douche bag type of way!
@@bobaganoosh88 So you found out when you took it off that it wasn't the thermostat, but decided to call it the thermostat in your video anyway. It is also not the coolant "bypass hose". It's not a hose and doesn't bypass anything. Perhaps making expert how-to car repair videos isn't your true calling.
@jspatz1 I don't make expert car videos I make videos for regular people to fix their shit with whatever they have for tools. And I learned the correct name via the comments so yes I did name the video wrong because when I made it I thought it was still called that or something similar. So quit crying on RU-vid and go fix your car you whiny little b 😆
@jspatz1 and no it's not my calling hence why I say I don't care if you like or subscribe I just want you to fix your shit. Whether it's called a thermostat housing or something else, I can still help someone repair that part. I wasn't counting on some whiny little asswipe complaining about what I called the part like it'll keep you from fixing it or something. 😆 cry harder why don't you
@@bobaganoosh88 I fixed mine a couple of weeks ago, from watching a video by someone who knew what they were doing. I was able to buy the part because I knew what it was called. Not sure how you were able to buy the part. When you asked for a thermostat housing they should have sent you home with a thermostat housing.
No but it's pretty straight forward like this job. The small bolts holding the rail on are near the coil packs. Remove those 4-6 bolts and use a fuel line disconnect tool to remove the fuel line in the rear, unplug each injector, and it'll all come off with a small pry bar or big screwdriver. Make sure to replace the o rings on every injector.
@@bobaganoosh88Right... thanks, I've seen a lot of videos but not one that has the fuel rail I have. Didn't think to use luella line tool to disconnect the lines on mine, so thank you.👍
0:52 BRO! thats was the fastest harness removal i have ever seen iny life , i end up always spending touch time trying to get thoes removed you did it lightspeed. Respect lol
My brother was gonna help me do my mom's tomorrow and he told her today is was too complicated and even with his buddy's shop and tools it might take a day to 2 days. I thought he was full of it until I watched this lol, no thanks
Thanks for the video. PS. I strongly encourage everyone to torque the bolts: Google search revealed 41 ft-lbs for Bearing bolts, 26 ft-lbs for brake caliper and 95 ft-lbs for wheel lug nuts.
I just want to fix my shit too...im hoping this procedure will work with a 2018 encore. Bought the parts, watched your video 50 times...fingers crossed..apple sauce
It could be the intake gaskets doing that. A little more simple of a job. Upper intake comes off and the lower and you can replace the gaskets there. I would power wash the engine or clean it up really well and then see where the fresh oil leak is coming from.
@@bobaganoosh88 I already got the timing cover gasket kit as it was leaking pressure from the same spot in the video here just weird I got oil coming out my water pump at first I that it was some sort of gasket maker cuz it was just a little then it started really leaking oil pretty bad I just gotta go get a puller to finish getting the timing cover off there is a bunch of o rings tho and a gasket I don’t know where it goes obviously I know the timing cover gasket water pump gasket oil ring but there like 5 o rings that’s idk where the could possibly go
@@bobaganoosh88 it did seem to have some burn oil or maybe coolant floating on top there was barely any coolant in the car when it first started overheating I’m poor and I knew there was an issue so I filled the radiator with water to get to work for the week only 10 min ride the more I drove the more oil came out the water pump the radiator had a bunch of that orange shit maybe burnt coolant
You're welcome, this is the reason I make videos. Not in an attempt to get famous, but to provide the information needed for people to fix their own stuff! Thank you for watching!
Watching at 9:30 pm while sitting on the side of the road waiting for a tow. That Crack you showed broke off in the hose causing the hose to blow off. Tomorrow project.
Best video on this part and vehicle that I have seen on RU-vid. The only trouble I had was with the hose clamp near the exhaust hose so I bought a clamp that you can use a screwdriver to tighten. The one module fastener that was on the back broke so now it's just hanging in place. Everything else went back on okay. I didn't have that particular torque socket and was hard to find in automotive stores because it is labeled differently. The one I got is black not silver and it's called EP 10 and was only available in a set. Overall your video helped me get the job done. Thanks!
Thanks for this video my dude. About to attempt this myself in the next few weeks. Also saw one of your comments saying you’re from Kalamazoo, I’ll be there Memorial Day weekend for my son’s soccer tournament (from far northwest burbs of Chicago). Cheers!
