This is a tough water pump. This guy makes it look easy but the bottom nut is BRUTAL to get on.
I am about to do this job for the second time in two years. This second van is a bit rusty so I am not looking forward to it.
This video really is a huge to rev me up for the task.
Thanks!
***** If it makes you feel better, I too had a hard time with the first few... I can't recall how many I have changed over the years now. As with a lot of jobs, sometimes you have to work by feel, because you just can't see what your fingers are trying to do. It will get easier! Thanks for watching & taking the time to comment!
Did not know it was so difficult to remove and replace, thanks ......my vans water pump just went out after many many years of good service, my van deserves a new one 1986
Tom Nielsen The 2.1L isn't that bad to do. Some seem to last forever... some only 5 to 8 years. I might have a newer / better video... I think.
I plan to do this job today, so your video is a tremendous help. Thanks! I like that you don't chatter along telling us obvious things liken most videos. Perhaps a little better lighting, especially under the van would be cool. Thanks again!
This is one of my old videos... I do my best to have enough lighting for the camera. Work comes first however, so I have to focus on that (hence no taljibg). Several million more views & subscribers, and I'll be able to do TV quality tech videos.
Just as an update. I did this job after watching your video and it was indeed a great help. However, I ran into an interesting problem. The right side allen bolt holding the crossover pipe to the old pump was too close to the three-belt pully (I have AC on my 87 Syncro) to use an allen socket. Any regular allen wrenches that fit just stripped the head. I had to cut the crossover pipe with a sawsall to remove the pump with part of the pipe attached. Turns out both allen bolts were fused solid to the pump so there was no way they were coming out anyway and I had to cut the heads off to get the flange off. I welded the pipe back together and reused it (the part is NLA and/or out of stock at the usual sources). Let's just say it took more than 30 min! How
Great video! It gave me the confidence to give it a shot myself (and the justification for buying some air tools). Nicely organized shop, too.
Let me know how it goes... thank you for watching!
@@EXOVCDS Since I am also replacing the reservoir and overflow tank with a VanCafe Tank and a new Overflow, removal was very easy due to the extra room. It was actually FUN! I would recommend pulling the tanks anyway just for the extra room (especially to people who only do this occasionally). Installation has been a bit more of a PITA because I decided to splurge on the silicone H-pipe hoses and those clamps are more of a PITA if you back it off too much and it disengages from the screw's teeth or if you forget one. I would also recommend installing the water pump to H-Pipe hose while the pump is off of the vehicle. It was tremendously frustrating. :) Despite all that, it's still been a good time learning more about my Westy!
Thanks Thomas, that's a huge help; I liked the trick with the magnet to get the bolt started. The same job will probably take me two days but I'll get a running start now with your run down. The Mise en Place: Rubber grease, Anti Seize, Silicone, Emery cloth, 3M stripping disk, 6mm allen socket, swivel, 6" and 10" extensions, Channel locks, Mack Daddy hose pick set (hafta buy that set, but if this isn't the time for it it never will be).. IMO it's also a good time to replace the oil pressure sender and wire harness. I've heard if a bad water pump is left to go too long it can chew up the block casting - maybe I heard that from you.. Thanks again for making the video.
Thank you for watching... let me know how it all goes / went once done.
Sorry about the length of the video... was going to split it in two, but forgot.
I like your video's but man that water mark is totally annoying!
I'm getting ready for this procedure and I think this video will provide me muuuch help. Apart from the frustration knowing that it will take 2-3 days instead of 30mins. (I lack some tools..)
The video was edited... I took longer than 30min as well! :-) Nice part is that the van does not need to be lifted to do the pump. You might have to get under it to get at hose clamps, but lifting should not be needed.
***** Took me 2 days to get the pump off. The two Allen bolts holding the cross over pipe, were pretty worn. Ended up cutting the old pump in half+drilling some holes in the bolts so that I could get a sprint in.
But your video was a tremendeous help! Thanks for showing it step by step. :)
strykarhund Things don't always go smoothly... there's been lots of times where I had to do what ever I could to get a part out.
This helped so much, I just swapped mine out
Thank you for watching!
Thank you very much this helped tremendously. I'd like to find a comprehensive step by step of 2.1L coolant drain, flush, bleed..
Open as many coolant lines as possible and blow them out... including the drain plugs in the heads.
Thanks for this. Fun seeing how a pro does it. Consoling to hear others also admitting to length of task. I didn't see an opinion on the source of the replacement pump. Have one?
+Sam Padgett Thanks for watching! Any parts store that specializes in VW / Audi, will carry a good quality pump.
Thanks for video.
Can you help?
What is the hole below pulley bolts on 8:43?
My pump leaks from it.
It's a "weep" hole... coolant that gets past the bearing leaks from there. A little bit of coolant now & then is OK... if it is dripping, replace the pump.
Thomas, what brand “rubber grease” are you using? Thanks for making these very helpful videos!
I no longer use that lube... was hard to find. I use "Super Lube" now. Thank you for watching!
Hey if you were to put together a road trip kit for tools and spare parts what would you include obviously the 10,12,13mm sockets
You will never be able to anticipate what you need or what will go wrong. A basic folding case socket & wrench kit for sure. Screwdrivers, hose clamp pliers etc etc. Basically look at the engine bay and take not of all the different fasteners / what is required to loosen them. Drive axle cv bolts are either 6mm Allen or M8 triple square / multipoint. Front wheel bearing nuts are 27mm. Rear outer axle nut is 46mm. I could go on & on. It all depends on how much room you have for tools... what about spare parts? Belts, hoses, liquids, distributor cap, rotor, ignition coil, plugs, wires, fuel filter etc etc. Ignore stuff that is less than 2 years old.
@@EXOVCDS where is your shop located? I want you to go through my 89 tintop
I'm in BC. I don't have control over who works on which vehicle.
how much "play" should be in the water pump shaft at the pully?? I have a leak but cant seem to find the source, there is a very small amount of "play" when pried with a screw driver, could this be the leak?? Any suggestions?? Please advise.
Mike Marchetti ideally no play, a small amount should be OK. The pumps have a small weep hole below the shafts. A bit of weep age now and then is OK. If you can't find any external leaks, look inside the van... front or rear heater core. If those are OK, might be head gasket.
I was hoping you wouldn't say head gasket! Is this motor like older V8's where the water would be in the cylinder? How would I test for a bad head gasket? Compression check maybe?? There does seem to be a bit of "clear" liquid in the exhaust but I figured that was condensation, not coolant, it ain't green. I was hoping to figure a way to find the leakage visually, I checked all the hose clamps....tight, did the screwdriver to the pulley... a bit of play, I do know that the water/coolant drips from around the oil filter housing pretty regular and quickly...first place noticed while running and observing from under car, are the heads like an older VW?? push rod tubes, etc?? It just sounds like a loooonnnggg day to do that, please advise if you have any suggestions as to how to isolate/locate the leak. Thanks , Mike
and how would the liquid get from the heater cores to only the rear left corner?? Seems to me there would be coolant from that point aft externally.
internally??
PS, you got any cars for sale?? VW's??
Notice the conspicuous absence of the annoying AC compressor on this engine!
Any chance you could do one on a 2.1L Syncro?
It's exactly the same thing.
Finished it today, maybe a 4 hour job. I didn't have the correct tools to make the job easy.
Thanks for the video!
Thanks for the update and thanks for watching!
mean rear end removed and easy change it
O
Thank you for watching!
When to replace water pump
When it is noisy or it leaks.
Thank you do you have Facebook?
No.
GREAT VIDEO, but, I want to vomit with the moving head cam, set up a tripod, or two, or three and stop all the moving stuff (barf), I don't need to see your workbench and stuff.
BUT thank you very much for the walk through!
Yeah... my boss is gonna like it when I spend lots of time setting up & moving tripods and cameras! I do a better job of recording in my newer videos... if you have questions about something... ask. I get sick / barf when people waste time posting useless stuff, when they could get answers to questions instead. Baaaarffff... =)
Hey Thomas, first, sorry, this is my first time watching any of your videos, so I did not know you were recording while at work, and I fully understand the time constraints of setting up cameras etc. But, that being said, I did compliment you on the video and thanked you for the walk through. I don't think I deserved the comment about posting useless stuff, which I may assume you will think this is.
Please continue the great work and the videos, have an awesome day sir.
My bad... I guess the smiley face at the end of my post didn't work. I'm happy to hear you understand my side of things (recording while at work). If you ever have questions or need info, just leave a comment... I have a pretty good track record of helping people (even without video footage).
Hey Thomas, thanks for reaching out again, so here is my problem, I have watched the video probably 10 times now, especially the part about disconnecting the crossover pipe that passes behind the crankshaft pulley.
I have followed it to the 'T", but I can only get it to move about an 1/2" before it binds behind the pulley and hits against a "cooling" fin on the pump, and it will not rotate back to allow the removal of the pump, any ideas? Thanks again for your time. P.S, I have tried moving it to the right also, AND the hose moves freely on the right hand side, so that is not the problem.
Thanks again.
Sorry, it is an 1986 Weekender
