    Best video on UA-cam. Thanks for the straight forward approach without any nonsense. My project went well except the one and a hours trying to get the top radiator hose off. Merry Christmas.

    I’ll be doing mine pretty soon, my van started to leaking coolant,
    This video encouraged me to do it.
    Thanks man, excellent video, just wonder how to bleed the system?
    That’s the only thing I didn’t understand; how to make sure the system is bleed.
    Thanks a lot !

      Hi Antonio once you fill the system with coolant turn the vehicle on put the heat on high.. let run until it is at operating temperature... When the vehicle is at operating temperature and you have the heat blowing hot through the vents that's letting you know the system is bled.. add more coolant if needed ..hope this helps 🍀🤘

    I noticed a lot of water poured out when you removed the old water pump. How do you replace that water after installing the new water pump?

      @starmaster191 Рік тому

      @motivquotez iirc like $800. but I'm up here in Fairbanks, Alaska so it might be higher cost for me. I had to take it back to them for warranty work and they claimed they found something wrong with the water pump so they warrantied the whole thing out. then at the same time they did put in an Arctic grade power steering hose cause it's common for those to go out up here in the extreme cold. 🥶
