1998 to 2002 Chevy or GMC Water Pump Replacement. 

You know on the tensioner there is a slot to fit either a 3/8's or a 1/2" drive breaker bar to move it in the front. Makes it a whole lot easier. Almost all tensioner have it. Just a little square.

Couldn't get my fan off til I seen this video. A big thank you.

I spent 8 hours to screw in from rear. it would not screw in. bought a 9mm steel bolt a little longer and OMG it worked. thank you for video. got it out and the back side had no flare to accept a10mm.

Sir I felt compelled to comment on this work of art. Hey man I'm being serious. There is so much freaking common sense being thrown around I had to make sure I didn't somehow slip into an alternate universe. The type of education that comes from someone navigating the usual missteps and bad habits that just seem to come natural for most of us diy mechanics is basically priceless. Not only do you explain why not to start stripping and destroying the surrounding parts when all of those little things begin to happen, you calmly just pass on the important things only learned through experience. You definitely have acquired a masters in problem solving. Your tone is one of certainty and confidence absent of the standard condescending tone that some qualified mechanics radiate. Like they are trying to remind you of how irresponsible it was to not actually listen in auto shop or to think far enough ahead to work towards that ASC certification that we quietly envy. Wow, I almost sound like I actually studied in those English classes. Haha. Serious though, I learned more from your video than I have from watching all of those DIY combined. Well played indeed!

Super helpful. I have a 2000 k3500 and this is the same set up as what you have. Looks doable! Thanks!

Good explanation. Easy to follow. Much appreciated. Best of luck out there.

Well hell...looks easy enough..I'm going to buy the part & tackle it myself & save some $...thanks!

Awesome video! Thanks for explaining everything so well.

Sr. You are a genius. Thanks

Thanks for the video

Great video,a lot of people tell me I need a special tool to get the serpentine belt off.

very helpful, used to change pump on 97 k1500/

Thanks! This helped a ton

Most belt tensioners have a little square where a 3/8's ratchet will fit in it then just push down. Pretty simple.

Well dont assume the bolt in the back of the fan will work my bolts will not fit in from the back so that's not always an option

Dude thx for the tips they helped a lot

thank u

a nice intro but his method to remove fan doesn't work, unable to screw in bolts from behind

I have a 1999 Chevy Suburban with a code that pops up p0410, I changed the secondary air pump but it still reads the same. What do I do?

You give the gaskets a ‘ silicone paint job ‘. Not so that it needs it to seal but rather to help them come right off if you need to go there again someday

Will a water pump from a v6 Chevy motor fit a 2000 Silverado v8

hey this looks easy but when trying it I broke all the bolt holes in the fan sprocket out without getting the nut loose. I think I can get the pump off without taking the fan off, I will find out tomorrow.

I get right about putting the bolt in backwards but damn, bettor man than me. It is way too cockeyed too fit back in backwards. I will always take any advice I'm doing wrong xD

Now that's what I call a filthy engine!

Thomas?!?! You're a frickin genius!!! 😁

Bolt didn't work. Wouldn't fit

Didn't work for me. Screw is too short to catch water pump fins. Longer screws just bent.

did this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-heJ-twm72DE.html and bent the shit of the bolt and have to find another one .... dont do this
