Question? To remove the air from the system When turning the heat on dose the truck needs to be on???
My truck is 2006 v8. I'm not sure where the drain plug is on my radiator to drain it
When it comes to replacing any serpentine belt just remember Smooth on Smooth, Groove on Groove.
+Marty's Damn Channel Thanks for checking us out. 1AAuto.com
Dude i dint know that thank you
I'm not much of a mechanic but this video was perfect. Everything went as outlined in the video and I was able to do it without any problems. Thank you very much!
But you have to start somewhere, right? We're happy to be a part of the learning process with you, John! Thanks for watching and good luck on all your future repairs! 1aauto.com 866-403-3393

Thanks for a great, time saving, video. I only had one recommendation, if you ever edit this procedure. I removed the air box completely, and it made a great location to place the overflow reservoir/wiper fluid tank without having to undo ANY tubes or sensor connections. Hence, no wiper fluid loss, or potential broken connectors with those goofy safety latches. The air box is easily removed by loosening the main snorkel tube hose clamp, removing both the snorkel and breather tubes from the box, and then lifting the box out of the engine bay. With that gone, the reservoir(s) can just be rotated up into the empty space. Hope this might help someone downstream from here.
Agreed 100% so much easier that way.
bogus360 awesome point out! I thought about doing it this way too. Instead I decided it would be a good time to completely wash out the tank anyway.
Definitely helped out!
Great instructional step by step video on replacing a water pump. But I'm still going to have my mechanic do the job.
Well documented video with clear instructions, good lighting and angles. Thank you for sharing how to unlock the plastic clips, we need more people who document these.
Thank you 2023.
I didn’t watch your whole video. I was pausing and going. And then I got to the bolt map… yeah should have watched the whole video first 😆
+@StreetSweets Thanks for the feedback!
Mechanical knowledge is underated in life
+THE Scratchyscratch! Thanks for checking us out!
Awesome job explaining everything without all the bla bla bla... keeping it simple!!! Good job 👏 👍 👌
The bolt located behind the power steering pump has to go in with the pump assembly. It won't go in after all the other bolts are in. That same bolt will not come out on its own and has to be left in and removed with the pump.
Just want to say thanks for all the videos yall make. I have an 03 ram and yall have saved me thousands of dollars showing me how to fix my truck . Thank you
Great video, only thing you missed was the bleeding procedure. Most Rams has a bleed allen screw port located at the outter end of the upper radiator hose. After filling your radiator, remove screw and start and run the vehicle until fluid runs clear at this port, once all the bubbles are gone reinstall allen screw and you're done.
+Antonio Ric Thanks for checking us out!
Best videos on youtube.. Straight to the point and no bs
Thank you guys! The shop quoted me $550 and I was able to do it myself for $50!

Great videos and very helpful. I'll definitely purchase from 1A Auto Parts just because you guys cared enough to make the videos.

This is an EXCELLENT video. Thank you 1AAuto👌🏾
Thank you so much for this video! I was able to replace my water pump without any problems or questions today!
Very helpful video, thank you. Best one I've found, I was worried until I seen this!
Guess what im doing this weekend, guys 😂. Thanks for the video.
This looks much easier than my old 390FE 😊
That was a very informative and extremely well done video. Sure wish I could find one just like it for my 2002 and up Dodge Ram truck with the 5.9 gas engine in it. The 2002 evidently had a mid year change over and mine is the one that is the newer body style crew cab or 4 door, not the clam shell style doors, 1/2 ton 4x4 truck with air conditioning and auto transmission.
You just saved me 500 bucks. Thanks
This video was amazing and saved me a lot of time and money. Thank you so much for posting it. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for more of your videos when I need to work on my 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 and any other of my vehicles. I really liked the cardboard screw diagram idea. It kept me from ending up with "extra" parts like I normally do lol.
Glad to hear that it was helpful for you! Yeah, arranging your screws, nuts, or bolts in the same pattern that they will be reinstalled in is always a good idea, but not too many of us think to do it. It's one of those things you pick up along the way I guess. Anyway, thanks for checking out the video and we hope we'll be able to continue to help you out in the future! 1aauto.com 866-403-3393
Awesome video man had to change my pump and your video walked me through it perfectly

1A Auto makes the best videos. This video helped a lot. It did take a lot more then a hammer and wrench to get off my fan. I had to buy a fan remover tool. But other then that it was smooth sailing. Thanks guys and keep it up. 👍🏼
+Rr S Thanks for watching. Keep us in mind in the future if you need parts! 1aauto.com
The greatest video ever. ! All of your videos are very helpful with all the right information. One thing I might add was how much antifreeze you might need to refill the radiator and the overflow tank. But this video was very helpful and I was successful at changing my water pump using this video.
+Lee H Thank you for the feedback!
Very clear and easy to follow. Thank you 1A!
+Dylan Behrens Thanks for checking us out!
Man, when he started removing the stuff for the radiator, i was like WHY!!! Whew glad you explained that
Great video…one of my heater core pipes sprung a leak and of course that means the whole water pump has to go.. your video made it easy.. I had to make a tool for the fan as the tensioner trick didn’t work for me, where everything was apart I replaced the thermostat and replaced the belt as well. The video made it easy and needed to Paulse on it for the belt touting. Thanks for sharing!!
I used this video to change the water pump on my '05 Very straight forward. Thanks for doing this.

Is this the same procedure for a 2005 Ram 1500 with Hemi 5.7 ?
i found it was easy to just pop out the air box and then swing the overflow/washer tank over in it's spot, no disconnecting of any tubes or wires
Excellent instruction video. Everything very clear . Taking that fan off was murder before I saw your simple method. A lot of profanity was avoided following the way you did it.Many thanks

Very very very helpful thank you question does a 2006 ram Mega cab has a relay for the condenser fan it seems that nobody knows that the RAM 1500 Mega cab the parts you buy have to be for a Ram 2500 sometimes it confusing plz help
SUPER excellent video, one of the best step by step explanation type of videos, thank you so much, 1A Auto you guys are the best 😉👍, take care blessings.
Always thanks for the video.
How much gallons of antifreeze did you guys use to refill ?
Thank you very much! It was my first project to do by myself on my work truck thanks for the guidance..
Stellar video - loved the bolt map.
+Dalton Clark Thanks for the feedback, we are glad you enjoyed it!
Thermostat has a small brass nipple called the jiggle valve. It need to be at the highest point of the waterpump when installing. This acts as a bleeder valve for this vehicle.
thanks for the video it helped me a lot to repair my doge ram 2004 greetings from Hermosillo, sonora
Very well done... the video I mean. Thanks for the details.
+Tim Hawk Thanks for watching. 1aauto.com
Excellent video! Thanks 1A Auto!!!!
+F.O.U.O Cruz Thanks for checking us out! 1AAuto.com
Very nice video. I like the clutch removal. A big crescent wrench did it! Be sure to check that the fan is in good shape as well as tensioner pulley.
I'm not sure how important this is but when you install your thermostat, there is a little bleeder valve to position upward. Saw that in another video.
It does take a while for tstat to open when starting back up and everything to bleed out and heat start working. I drove a bit and keep opening radiator cap to let air escape.
I did install the $5 gasket between the pump and tstat housing, I don't think it can hurt. I also applied general purpose black adhesive sealant around the water pump. I think it can only help seal things up if you're worried.
Thanks for the video! The pipe wrench trick didn’t work for me after battling with it for 45min. Went to AutoValue and rented the fan clutch spreader bar and wrench. Took me 2 seconds to take the fan clutch off. Rental was free.
That trick barley works. Unless its been off recently
Do you add silicon or gasket just fine?
Great video. Straight forward and no nonsense
+Wolfpack rc Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Thanks for the great video's guy's!!
Great video. Only question is why put the shroud on before the fan? Also for some reason I thought the thermost was at the bottom of the engine. I guess not.... or are there 2? I have a 2006 4.7L
I love the way u guys explain everything tbh i understand more what u guys teach than what my teacher does lol
+Jose Canas Thanks for checking us out and the great feedback!
Great job on the video man. Thanks a lot. Keep up the good work.
+K E Thanks for checking us out. 1AAuto.com
Great video guys. Good job.
Great video, helped alot!
You guys do great videos thank you
the only thing I wasn't clear on was where you put the 3/8 ratchet and putting tension on the serpentine belt.
I have a 2011 5.7 Hemi Ram. I want to do a simple flush & fill of the coolant. My fill bottle is at the front of the truck & is black plastic. I can't tell how much coolant to put in as I see no high or low mark. How do I keep from over or under filling it. Thanks
Great video, I have 1 question, do I need to use silicon or it is not necesary.
Video helped a lot. Thanks
God job on this video. Thank you!
Thank young man that was great, I fill confident that I can good it now , good lookin bro.
Great video Big thanks !
Very nice your the best
Thanks for the overview.
+Steven Alvarez No problem. Glad to hear it helped you out. 1aauto.com?UA-cam&CTA%20Comment&ATony 866-403-3393
OMG thank you so much I thought I had to go out and buy a clutch wrench LOL that's crazy man that's so cool thank you
+Lee Smith Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com
Great video! Just wrapped up my water pump install. Fan bolt was so seized I sawzall'd that fucker off, bought a new clutch, gotter done. Saved almost a G! Cheers from Alberta
Great Video....Thank you!!!
you madde cracking that fan nut look so easy, I just wish it was that easy in real life, I tried many times and no dice, look like I need to order the tool.
Great video.
At the end of the video you said let it run the bubbles out so I filled the radiator the expansion tank was already full I let it run and topped off but it kept running dry in the radiator do I add more or wait for the expansion tank to even it out
4:26 sweet! saves me from having to draw my own diagram!

Good job
Great video, followed it perfectly, however after reassembly the truck failed to start after it had just been running with a “coolent system performance” code, let it sit for 30 minutes or so and then it ran just fine with no issues
That's a Great Video, I will do that step by step. Thks.
+david friesen Thanks for checking us out!
Two questions, how much do you guys sell the water pump for 2004 5.7 hemi, I understand it has a life time warranty, the other question is the torque, you mentioned 18ft/lb but many other sources on the internet states 30ft/lb can you please confirm the torques for 2004 hemi 5.7 thanks
So do I need to remove the fan and radiator if I’m doing it from the ground beneath the truck ?
How much coolant is needed to fill it up?
Quick question what type of antifreeze is required dexcool or just your regular 50/50 antifreeze, I have a 2005 Ram 5.7 hemi?
Do not use regular green antifreeze in these, they take HOAT coolant 50/50 mix (of course). Best HOAT stuff I've found that I use in mine is Zerex G-05, sold at AutoZone and Amazon.
Excellent! Now to just order the parts lol
Would this be the same for the V8 4.7L model? Or is it only for the HEMI?
Great video!!!
How long does this usually take to fix? I plan on doing it tomorrow, bought the part today.
Great Video but is it possible to remove the radiator fan shroud before removing the fan blade? It looks like it could make removing the fan blade easier. Also, where is the weep hole located on this type of water pump? Thanks
I know it's been 7 months but I had trouble taking the fan clutch off so I took off the bolts that hold the fan and I was able to scoot the fan blade over and pull the shroud off 👍🏻
Thank you for all your help and videos. Will this apply to a 2012? Or do you have video for that years? Thank you
+Jose Cayama We don't have a how-to video for your vehicle right now, but the basic steps in this video should be enough to do this task. Buy this part for your vehicle on 1AAuto.com: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
GOOD JOB 👍
I’m currently doing this idk if anyone with answer in time but I also replaced my belt tensioner and it looks like same with the pre loaded pin, they didn’t remove it so idk if they missed that part or it’s okay to leave it like that ?
My timing chain cover gasket on my 06 Dodge 4.7 is leaking water to the outside. I am going to order the Felpro 46000 gasket. Do I have to use sealant with this gasket. Also do I use any other O rings in addition? Thanks you.
+Lastinline You should not need any sealant with this gasket. Thanks for watching!
Hey, I used this video to swap my water pump, everything went smoothly. The problem I have now is the upper hose is spitting a bit. From the radiator side of it. Should I double clamp it? I have a brand new upper hose on it but it's still like a little sprinkler, loosing maybe 1/16 in the reserve tank a week.
