@HuuTonyTran 5 лет назад

Ok my concern is do I really have to take out the whole engine block out of the car engine bay to replace the Water Pump on it though ? Can I replace the Water Pump while the engine is still inside the car ?

@davidraycaldwell96 4 года назад

@@HuuTonyTran Absolutely you can do it with the motor in the car. However, once you rip an EJ out of it's body a couple times, if you have a place to do it and the tools, you'll quickly realize it's almost not worth the hassle to leave it in the car when doing this sort of engine work. If you have an engine lift, an impact wrench, and an engine rotisserie, you can have that motor out in half an hour. Then doing ANY engine work instantly simplified. Tight spaces are great at making you contemplate life and also NEVER want to do mechanical work again. HAHA Anyhow, you can do it, but it may be tight. If you do it, do yourself a favor and remove the entire radiator. You have to drain the cooling system anyhow, so you may as well remove the two bolts it takes to take out the radiator. It will make your life so much easier. That is all. -- David -- Shameless Subaru Addict

I LOVE your installation video format. No talking! Sometimes the people in these instructional videos talk about random stuff while doing work or even the sound of their voice gets real annoying and unbearable. I am putting your videos to good use because I just picked up a 1998 Legacy Outback with a slew of problems. I couldn't pass up a $200 bargain. I really do appreciate you taking the time to record, edit, and upload these awesome videos! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

@DavidJones-ms5ek 4 года назад

I have to say that on a 2007 Forester, this job is a bastard, even with the radiator out. The gasket and bolts do not remain in place when seating the water pump so I had to come up with a a method using elastic bands to keep everything in place. Another problem I had was with the Protex water pump not having a machined channel for the rubber seal that runs along one side of the pump (as the original pump had). The seal sat very proud making it impossible to align the bolts so I had to slice the seal in half in order to make the water pump fit. Be warned that a Protex Blue water pump may not be the best choice.

@JDMHaze 4 года назад

not bad, because the toyota/lexus 3.5 V6 water pumps have 16 bolts 😖😖

@mrfester42 14 дней назад

Mr Subaru, I'm a subscriber and I'm crossing my fingers that you look at the messages from your older videos. I'd like your recommendation on what brand oil pump to buy for my 2005 Baja (SOHC). The lowest price genuine Subaru oil pump from various Subaru online sellers is more than twice the price of various brands of aftermarket pumps. I'm installing a Timing Belt Kit with Water Pump from AISIN as per your recommendation and I want to also replace the oil pump while I'm at it. What brand Oil Pump do you recommend? If there's no way you can recommend an aftermarket Oil Pump then I guess I'll have to break down and spend the money on a genuine Subaru pump but I'd like to hear that from you. Your the only guy I trust on these questions. Many Thanks!

Would a bad water pump on a EJ20 cause the coolant to be over-pressurized? I have overflow at the resevoir. Changed cap, thermostat, burped the system, and did a block test that came back neg for a bad head gasket. I'm baffled at this point.

@jakelieske 2 года назад

I just changed my engine in my 2009 Subaru Impreza outback sport. I was having overheating issues then bled the coolant system, now it’s just at idle and when I drive again it cools down, not trying to start with the water pump. It is not leaking any coolant and does have a new thermostat any suggestions?

@johndibiase882 6 лет назад

asking for your help once again. 01 subaru outback 3.0 / i replaced radiator / thought i burped system good but daughter said it was over heating the two top hoses were hot but bottom was not so i replace thermostat and burped system with Lisle 24680 Spill-Free Funnel plenty of air came out but bottome hose still never got Hot, any reason why? fans work

@MrSubaru1387 6 лет назад

Is the heat blowing hot? Are you running the heat while burping so as to not air lock the heater core?

@johndibiase882 6 лет назад

i burped the system. yes heater is blowing hot, I felt the bottom radiator hose and still not hot? I replaced thermostat and radiator drove it and after 39 miles temp started to rise and the radiator hose split in half

@MrSubaru1387 6 лет назад

Are you getting a lot of bubbles in the coolant? Either a have a defective thermostat or a head gasket issue.

@johndibiase882 6 лет назад

yes it is bubbling in the coolant i replaced therostate.. driving me crazy because i want to trade it in but not like this the rest of the car is in great shape. it has 219,000 miles on it

@MrSubaru1387 6 лет назад

You either got a bad thermostat, or you have a blown head gasket. The combustion gasses are entering the cooling system and causing an air lock behind the thermostat, preventing it from opening.

@davidellis5312 5 лет назад
