Great primer before I replace mine in the morning.

Very good ~ Thank You!

Great video for today going to fix it right now

Very informative, great job!!

Awesome video will be doing this today

Do you need waterpump sealant on the back of the waterpump of the new one? I see you used it on the thermostat. Did you use it on the other gaskets?

I followed what you said now….. having one more problem now after I fixed the leak my Cadillac starts and then stops

Hey boss I know it's been awhile since you made this but I have another three Escalade. My belt was squealing really bad I replaced it. And it was okay then all the sudden it popped off and I lost all power of course but when I lifted the hood there was coolant all over. My belt came right out it wasn't hooked on anything or broke or ripped or anything so you think that was no water pumped that went bad? Considering the coolant all over around the crank area

Prior to its popping off there was a little bit of rumbling download in my engine compartment. I figured that was the bearings going bad in the pulley

This is my next project! Auto shop wanted over $1200 to fix multiple things.

Great video bro. Very informative. Very concise.

Great video!

Great job

How do I take the belts off the motor to change the water pump without messing it up

Thanks for posting. How did you bleed air from the system? Many cars have a high point in the hose that allows for an easy bleed, but less clear on the LQ9.

After replacing the water pump what coolant is best fit for my truck Cadillac Escalade 2004

Do the waterpump bolts needpermatex on them? Some vehicles the bolts go into water jackets on leak without it? Thanks.

Thank you so much 👍

How do I check if it’s my thermostat or water pump?

What kind of silicone on thermostat housing?

Hi so I’m going to replace my old water pump and bought some Amsoil coolant. Should I flush the system? Do I flush it first or after install. What is the best way to flush. Trying to figure out how to flush and keep the Amsoil coolant I bought. I’m stuck if I flush after with a mechanic but then I loose the coolant I bought. Thank you

Thank you sir

So I’m going to be doing this with my 03 Cadillac is it pretty much the same. I’m a female trying to learn How to fix my own cars problems because I’m tired of being ripped off

Thank you

My truck wouldn’t start unless I put antifreeze in it but now the water pump was no good and now it won’t start due to it leaking. Why does it not start is it cause of the leaking real bad

Mine just went out, how long does it take to replace it??

Would u happened to know how many catalytics come on a 04 esv?

Thermostat is on the water pumper. The housing is bolted to the water pump and the thermostat is inside that

How much coolant do you need ?

@MattShaughnessy6

Is the water pump expensive where can I by it at
