Just finished my first water pump/timing belt on a 2000 Base TL. Although there are a few slight differences ( the 2000 is 2nd generation, '04 TL is 3rd. Small details like 2 drive belts instead of one, no bolt on "keeper" around crankshaft timing cog, etc.) There's no way I could have done this without this video. I probably watched it 25 times total, starting and starting it countless times. I cannot tell you how good I feel right now, accomplishing such a daunting task, all the while standing on the shoulders of the genius who made this video. Thank you sir.

Hey that's great news! Performing a timing belt and water pump replacement is a big accomplishment for someone who's never done it before. Also, think of all the money saved if you had the dealer do it. To support this channel and to get updates on new videos, please subscribe.

Torque specifications are very important. Furthermore, you should always ensure the timing belt is installed correctly by rotating the engine with a breaker bar twice. if your marks still line up after those two revolutions then finish putting it back together. if not then your still out of time even if it is only a single tooth this will cause damage to the engine if you dont ensure its lined up Correctly. Other than these two things you did an outstanding job. Master tech here. 35 years exp.

Thanks for your post! I use paint marks and transfer them to the new belt to avoid wasting time with the "two revolution" technique after belt installation. If there's no belt slack between the cams and cranks, you're in alignment; however, engines that do not have have a self adjusting pulley tensioner (mostly the 4 cylinder engines) do require rotation to allow the belt to seat. But instead of rotating the engine, I start the engine which I found to better seat the belt.

Thank you! I didn't even notice that 15 minutes had elapsed and the tutorial video was over. This is the first youtube vid I did not skip ahead or have to go back and watch again, or check to see how much more time there was. Your video was spot on, easy to follow, hear clearly and understand. No time for the mind to wander. hahahaha. After watching, I can definitely do this with full confidence. I have all the tools to do the job too and know my bolt sizes too. BTW, I bet it took you longer to edit and master this tutorial video than it did actually doing the job. You Rock. Cheers!

@@hardlymovingpro So I'm into it today and so far so good, but now I'm trying to line up cams and I have no yellow marks...what do the marks look like otherwise if there's no yellow paint to go by? Another question: With your method of making (blue) marks and transferring to the new belt, why do I even need to find TDC? The car is currently properly timed; I just need to leave everything as it is, mark the cams and crank (and belt), transfer marks and replace, right? Why would it matter where the engine is in its cycle (TDC vs. wherever it randomly stopped when I turned it off) as long as I don't move anything and just replace the belt in the same spot?

Just successfully did the timing belt, bearings, and water pump on my 2002 Honda Accord V6! I would never have felt remotely confident enough to try it, had I not found this amazing video first! I had a few issues: the harmonic balancer bolt was dead-locked. I was even prepared with the exact high-mass impact socket attached to my heavy duty 1/2" impact...and it wouldn't budge at all. I eventually had to employ the bump start method to get it off. Highly stressful, but it worked on the 2nd try! The other issue I had was that my tensioner was a different design from the one you re-used in the video. Instead of a pin, mine comes with this ridiculous "clip" over the ends, compressing the whole thing together. But the spot where it goes was so tight, as soon as I got it down there it came off. At that point I thought I was totally screwed. After over an hour working on it, a buddy of mine comes over and we discover(using the old tensioner) that you can not use a vise to get it compressed again. You have to remove the nut on the back end and use a flat head screw driver to back up the tensioner to get the clip on. I then zip tied the clip on and after a long struggle I was finally able to get it bolted down. I had to thread in the top bolt on the tensioner and then use every bit of strength I had in me to push the tensioner bearing up so that I could force the tensioner in place and thread in the lower bolt...it was definitely the toughest part of the whole job! I also replaced the 2 other drive belts. I've never done a job this complicated and having your video in the garage with me was a life saver. After all parts were in and engine was ready, she started up on a dime and I took a 20 minute drive on freeway. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THESE INCREDIBLE VIDEOS!!!

Good story and glad it all worked out for you! You saved over $1,000 if you had let the dealer do it! Surprised the bump stop method worked for you. I began using the high mass socket when the bump stop didn't work for me anymore. If you remove all the timing belt slack to the left and right of the tensioner pulley, you shouldn't have had any problem bolting on the tensioner. That would mean moving the rear cam counter clockwise and the lower crank clockwise.

Thank G-D the bump start did work, cuz I don't know what I would have done if it hadn't. So you can move the cams and crankshaft separately and in different directions independent of each other? I would not have thought to do that.

I did have most of the tools already, the trick with marking the existing timing belt with an ink pen and taking a picture before removing the tensioner, then matching it carefully with the new belt, was wonderful! That crank pulley bolt is no joke, fighting that crank bolt can stop your progress in a hurry. I tried to get it off with a 18v snap on impact and it couldn't even budge it, I also have milwaukee tools so I ran out and I bought the new milwaukee m18 fuel impact and that took the bolt off with ease. I also bought a concrete mixing pan to catch the coolant from the block when you take off the pump housing. I did it on jack stands in the garage just fine. I would say it probably took me 8-10hrs doing the thermostat as well, but I wasn't rushing and started Friday night and worked on and off over the weekend

Removing the 10mm hose clamp on back cylinder head also helps get more play in high pressure hose. Just to save someone somewhere some time.

Additionally: Draining the coolant: There is a nice and fairly easy to access drain plug to drain the coolant out the engine block and water pump. It is located on the back of the engine in front of the steering tie rod link. You can see it from inside the front right wheel well. Drain the coolant before taking the water pump off so that most of the coolant is gone Knocking noise!!!! If changing the timing belt because of a knocking noise then make sure you get a timing belt kit with the shim that needs to be installed also on the timing belt idle pulley. If not, the noise may come back down the road (Apparently Acura says its the timing belt slapping on the engine mount) TSB 08-031

Thanks for your comment and support! Timing belts have less centrifugal mass than a timing chain setup and therefore robs less horse power. From a maintenance perspective, timing chains do not require replacement unless the chain stretches (caused by not changing the oil as outlined by the manufacturer or the crankcase oil level dropped and oil wasn't added). A stretched timing chain replacement job is around 3X the cost of a typical timing belt replacement (both parts and labor).

Never know the quality of the previous replacement parts. The tools needed to remove the crank pulley without impact tools (like a crank pulley holder and a super longer breaker bar) isn't worth it. You can get yourself a cheap AC electric plug in tool for around $50 now and use that with the high mass impact socket. Paint marks were based off of the camshaft and crankshaft top-dead-center timing alignment marks. It's all in the video.

Excellent job

As usual a very concise video. I would advise viewers to be sure to break torque on the crank bolt before doing anything else. Where can I find that angled drill??

Wow, well done my friend! Not sure who took the video but you captured each step very well and just what I was looking for. I'm looking to purchase the same model/yr for my teenage son with 89k miles from a dealer and I doubt the previous owner had it replaced so I can use it as a bargaining chip. It's the more rarer 6spd manual too, which according to Acura forums, are more reliable. Any chance you have a video on how to change out the clutch? Thanks brother!

Doesn’t look as bad as I thought it would. Not quite as easy as the Toyota UZ V8s but still totally manageable.

Love the videos thanks help

Awesome video! Quick question , would this be similar process to a j30a engine? My family car is a Honda Elysion 2008, cheers

Yes ... absolutely.

Great video, about the only thing I don’t agree with is using the old tensioner itself. We have several Honda/Acura vehicles with the J-series engine. & once the tensioner gets old, it starts to rattle & loses its ability to keep the timing-belt tight.

Thanks for your post. Good to know about the tensioner. Don't seem to have that problem with Toyota's.

@@hardlymovingpro indeed, we have several Honda/Acura vehicles with the J-Series V6 engine. The timing-belts in all of them were fine, but the tensioner in every one were rattling like crazy (think of engine knock noise)!

Looks like an excellent Video . I notice you didnt specify torque numbers on bolts for the Crank bolt , water pump , etc .

Thanks for you comment. Been doing this for so many years, don't use torque wrench that much. More important to spread torque evenly, clean contact surfaces and using quality parts. Though I do use toque specs. for head bolts doing head gasket replacements.

dope video

Most excellent video! But the only thing that bothers me is allowing coolant from water pump just pour over the crank sensor,, mine seems due an 06 TL runs smooth and powerful but it has clatter on cold starts below 70°f then goes away when motor is warmed up, I'm looking to have it changed soon,, Perfect Video!
