When you do water pumps on those coyote engines they always disturb the y connector and o ring on the hose and they leak
How caN I contact u directly. Having issues with 2015 Ford transit connect 1.6l. No start. Have no crank signal and p0118 for coolant temp. Will still code caused it not to start? After excessive cranking it will logged p0322 for crank sensor
@FordTechMakuloco can you make a video of how to get a broken dipstick out of the 2012 F150 5.0 seeing as it goes straight into the side of the engine instead of a separate tube
Will that o ring fit a 5.0 mustang as well? Amazon is saying it won’t
@FordTechMakuloco. Do you have a link for the upper and lower radiator hoses? My buddy wants to do all those and the y pipe on his 5.0 and I can't find Motorcraft hoses.
One of the many things about Makuloco is you never hear him swear, unlike me when I'm working on any of my vehicles.
🤣🤣 yeah, Last summer my neighbor was putting a rebuilt engine in a 97 S10 p/u. I think he invented a few new swear words. At times I think he made cuss word sentences. 🤣🤣
That was me today!
I was thinking the same thing.This guy never gets upset.
I had to do this same job on my 2013 f150. Had a friend standing by watching. I was over the rad, arms deep into the hoses spewing all kinds of fowl puke language. Finally got done, looked around, he was gone. Asked him later where he went, he said he left before I start throwing tools. It wasn’t that bad. I think I scared him.
@Jenny Melo Did the same, o-rings. Usually the hose is fine.
These videos should be purchased by Ford and be mandatory instructional requirements for ALL ford techs. He has great delivery and the nuances of these process are priceless for any do it yourselfers but Ford Techs could learn as well. Great job and keep up the good work...thousands use them to "figure stuff out".....we thank you.
I can't thank this guy enough for all the instructional videos. I have built engines and made all kinds of repairs using these tutorials. I know I have saved thousands of dollars repairing my Fords myself, and I know it's done right.
Can't help but notice the 5.0 repair playlist has two videos...the Eco Boost playlist has 14...Triton has 74 videos! Happy I got the 5.0, and sold my 5.4 to get it... You have to love it when the known common problems are "Sometimes people don't change the oil enough"
Man, you're a phenomenal teacher. Enjoy each of these you make - Thank You
This could not have come at a better time. I just discovered this leak last week. Thank you for all you do
Another fantastic video! I've been wrenching over 50 years and I watch your videos and learn the vehicle-specific tips and smile at all the little things you do to work smart not hard. For example, use an impact wrench to get the throttle body bolts close and then use a socket to feel the tightness. Nice work! Thank you!
The content of your videos and the information you give are fantastic. It was through one of your videos that you mentioned a recall on the Taurus, Edge etc. for the rear toe link. I called my dealer here in Ontario to find out about it. I gave them the recall # and my service guy said he wasn't aware of it but within a week he called with an appointment for the recall. Thanks, it's all due to your videos that I knew about it.
You are one of the top instructors I've ever seen .
Haven't even watched this video yet, but I know its going to be fantastic as usual .
You've helped me tremendously.
Thank You .
Another video that I have nothing in common with, BUT because its you just making informative automotive videos I watch them. Thanks for your hard work bro!💯
I do these regularly and that hose clamp on the y-pipe is no joke💪
Watched video 2x and followed the steps you give, and even was brave enough to take throttle body off and cleaned it too. Everything went real great. Thanks for instructions. BTW to others- it took me 2 hours from start to finish.
I replaced mine today with 2 new belts and I also done a coolant flush too(per your other post). It wasn’t bad at all. Took me about 3hrs to do it all and I really took my time. Thanks a lot for your instructions. It really helped a lot
You helped me fix my ford problems yet again. You also a long time ago got me the alignment specs for my 2016 f 150. Your a really great guy. I hope your Chanel doesn’t just go platinum but uranium. Thanks again.
Thanks. I bought a used 2014 F150 XLT with the 5.0 released from a fleet leasing company which overall runs great. Love having a truck again. Your videos really help before, as in the purge valve causing stall issues with no check engine error codes. Your video prevented me from chasing my tail or having to the Ford dealer who would chase their tails across my wallet. What a simple fix, thank you.
I currently smell traces coolant when I park the truck after a it's warmed up. Only about a half a cup every couple weeks but don't see leaks, nor have overheating issues. But I smell it. Now with this video I know actually where to look for possible leaks since currently I can't not spot one. Going to watch your throttle body cleaning video, looking forward to that piece of knowledge shared to all of us out here. Thank you!!!
Skilled mechanic at god level 🤯 setting the standard for the rest
Just did this on my 2014. I watched this video 3 times and I had the leak fixed in about 30 min. Great teaching going on here.
Just did this couple minutes ago. Thanks for being the best Ford channel on UA-cam!! Got just under 200k on my coyote F150 and rely on your videos a lot for stuff like this! Only thing I see missing is you not having a video on the stretch to fit belt thats on early coyotes
I can’t thank you enough for your expertise and this video. I’m a senior on a fixed income - I saved some serious dollars doing this myself. 55 minutes start to finish. Thanks again!!
Thanks for your video. Saved me a bunch of money. Walked out to my vehicle today to see a 2-ft puddle underneath my truck crawled under and seen it leaking from this part that you described.
Havent done my 16 yet, caught it dribbling 1 time this fall. Now i know the newer tech connections. Things have changed so much in the last 30yrs. Thx for the best videos. Now debating on whether me or Ford will fix my freezing latches.
I watched this video some time back and sure enough, my 2016 5.0 F150 now has the same leak...parts are still the same on Amazon...you saved me hundreds of dollars...Thank you for the info...
Thanks, I just recently noticed I had a coolant leak in my driveway and just came across this video and this was exactly the issue.
Superb video, just finished doing both diffs and the transfer case on my 19 because of your other videos. I will be ordering parts here soon and looking more into how to completely flush the system plus probably doing a thermostat swap. Keep it up man, we all appreciate you!
It is a great joy to hear the proper vocabulary for everything. Thanks!
Thank you very much for the video! I enjoy doing these somewhat "easier" repairs. GREAT VIDEO! Thanks for what you do!
Thanks to your video I was able to diagnose the issue on my truck leaving puddles, and order the correct parts for the repair. Thank you for posting this.
Going to start on my 2014 5.0 very soon!
Thanks Brian for the very detailed video regarding this procedure.
Literally had this open and would watch 5-6 steps and do them. Super easy with your play by play. Thanks man!
What a great way to start the new year :) 2016 f150 5.0 v8 at 91.000 miles, I replaced the seal and y joint. Follow these instructions exactly in this video with no issues afterward.
Took me 45 minutes
Thank you!
My plan was to replace the O-rings only - after viewing this video I decided to buy the Y-pipe and all of the other recommended parts. Thanks again for your great content. Ethan 2013 F-150 / 5.0
I just replaced the water pump and tee and the o-rings and I'll be #@####@# if it's not leaking again just 2 years later! Thanks for the refresher course. You're always spot-on !!!
I just finished doing this job. Went very smooth and your video was spot on. Burped system like said and nice heat flowing in cab at idle. Thank you brother!
Had this same leak at the beginning of the year. Thanks for the video! 2011-f150
Man this guy has taught me so much I can’t thank him enough he’s awesome
Super video. No wasted of time or filler just great instructions Thank you.
Thank you for the video. Another COMMON problem with my FORD. I was almost Found On Road Dead today. This video helped me make the repair the same day and move on with my job👍🔨
Always professional and detail oriented
Thanks for this. Great info, especially on the quick-connect hoses/ throttle body/purge hose. I didn't know the coolant hoses had to be aligned 'notch to slot'. Just did this repair 9-2023. Along with changing OEM belts and A/C Idler pulley(since I had it apart). 2014 F150@ 215K👍
Thanks so much for this, saw my 2013 Mustang GT leaking coolant at the y pipe replaced the entire water neck with the metal one from Dorman as well as the gaskets, went very smoothly thanks to you
Have you had any issues with the metal Y? Mine was an absolute bitch to get on, and yesterday my upper radiator hose blew off on me
Good thorough demonstration very informative as always
Thank you for your video! Used your video to do my repair. Love UA-cam because of videos like this. The hardest part was getting the belts back on. Thank you thank you thank you!!
Bro, outstanding video. Took me like 20min and I started cleaning stuff it was so easy. Great video work and tone of voice. New Toyota Tundra subscriber who appreciate your help with my daughters Ford.
Thank you Sir. Keep the 5.0 f150 2011 and up videos coming.
Thanks to you and this video, I was able to fix mine today. Thanks for all of your videos and help
Great video! I hate that new vehicles have so many plastic parts now and everything seems to be designed around assembly rather than durability.
No.. everything is designed around cost effeciency. Durability isn't a thought beyond 3-5 years
@@aninnymoose720 I don't even know who you are. 🤣🤣🤣
@@marathonfreak67 lol nice to informally not know u 😉
@@aninnymoose720no..
Very informative. Keep those videos coming !
I wish you posted this back in January after my 2015 F 150 5.0 went in the shop for the same problem. Down side the dealer had my truck for 11 days before they could get the part so they say.
Thank you, saved hundreds of dollars doing it myself.
Thanks for making this video, had to replace the exact same thing, very helpful!
I have been a Ford guy since my first hand me down car which was a 70 mustang Mach 1. I have been fighting Fords engineering since day one. I had to remove the complete dash to change two nylon bushings on the clutch pedal!!! Fast forward some 35 yrs, ALWAYS worked on my own stuff and here I am with my 2014 F150 5.0. Always bought new fords and learned as I go. We are a long way from carbs and 5/16 hose clamps. You have helped me keep up with the times, keep my Fords running and problem free with your great videos! My 14 has every MINOR issue you have described. Water pump(junk), “O” rings, burn fuse and brake issues. Every time ….you have the video! Even my Transmission fluid change with no damn dipstick! Keep um coming pal, I only have 140K so at least 140K more to go on this one. Thanks
👍🏽🇺🇸
Well….here I am again. 203506 miles on same 2014 F150 5.0 and I am smelling antifreeze for about a week now. Couldn’t find anything but the level was obviously going down. Weekend came and I pulled the air intake apart to access water pump area (replaced at 75000). Nothing to see. Wiped my finger around the clamp on the thermostat and there it was. Leaking on the back side. I came in and jumped right on this channel and of course, he has the perfect video. Ordered parts from his channel and will be replacing all next weekend. Thanks again.
Excellent video! Very descriptive & easy to follow.
Thank u so much for all your hard work to bring this super important information to DIY guys like me. 👍 👍
Just did my 2016 today, so easy thanks for the tips!
Thank you! Followed your instructions in less than 1 hour was completed thank you for a wonderful video. You should be a teacher. Wish we lived close to your shop but I live north of the border near Niagara falls.
Great Job, you make it look so easy. I love your work. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Your video was a huge help. Thanks for making the content 🤙🏼
Love your content brother. Very informative. Saved me multiple headaches..
I don't even have a 5.0. I have a 4.6 I just love watching your videos.
Great video....answered all of my questions about this repair.
Bmw clip on hoses are so terrible and last only a few years…
FORD: What a great idea! The AC quick connections went so well!
cant say enough thank yous for your helping us to fix this problem. very professional
Just did this repair. Thanks for the great video, it really helped.
Well filmed and explained. Thank you
THANK YOU! This video save me an $1800 repair bill my local mechanic wanted for this job! The links to amazon parts were spot on! Done in 1 1/2 hrs! Works perfectly
Yikes! I was too late finding this video and the dealer found and fixed it. Front/rear differential fluid replacement, new antifreeze and replacement of the Y connector and hose cost me just a hair under a grand.
That’s the "we don’t want to do it price" haha
Excellent video took me about 30 minutes plus fill and warm up time. Draining from the bottom of rad meant no spillage at all so belts were fine. Vehicle was completely cold I did cover belt area with rags. nice easy job. 2011 F150 5l
Thanks for video, will be doing this on my '14 coyote F150 with 127K today. Found the puddle yesterday morning and was able to hit the dealer parts counter before they closed at noon.
Your the best, thanks for making these videos for us, they really help us out a lot ! 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much. Explained very well. I follow your instructions on every repair job on my 2012 f150
Brian .. thank you for the comprehensive and concise videos. Son has 2014 f150 5.0 and sure at one point will need to replace y pipe. Thx!
I saw Antifreeze under my Water Pump and was about to buy one until I saw your video. Thank you so much.
thanks for the video. It was my problem. This was harder to do than thought. Very hard getting all the connections to line up. I had to remove the thermostat housing & that made connections much easier. The connection to the thermostat housing is very difficult to line up due to the tension in the radiator hose, but removing the thermostat fixed that. I made that connection first.
Totally used this video to do this repair. So helpful
Thank you! This instructional video was very helpful and easy to follow. Again, much thanks 👍
FTMakuloco - your videos are always helpful and top-shelf. Fords have been a famous PITD in my shop, so I always like to look ahead for what's involved before I submit a bid to the customer or start on the repair. Thank you for all your hard work and contributions to the community. 🍻 👍 ❤ ✌
Thank you, you’ve helped me tremendously.
Awesome and well explained video!
Thank you so much for your helpful videos.
Thank you for the tech tips.
This guys awesome you f150 owners be thankful 👍
Great video and thanks for those advices 👍
Thanks for the advice. I just replaced my flat leaky o-ring for my upper hose tonight. Thanks for the top notch service help
What's o'ring size ? Thanks...
@@marioallard2235 not sure I just had Ford look it up at my local dealership
@@marioallard2235 BC3Z 8590 F
Awesome video. Thank you! I'm replacing my thermostat while I'm in there as well.
Great video as always 👍
This video is so helpful. Thank you so much.
Your videos have helped me so much man so grateful your smart and right to the point and you make sure we can see what your doing thank you thank you thank you!
Thank you for including part numbers.
Great video. Thanks for posting.
Don't know his name...but every video he puts out is fantastic...thanks much for sharing your knowledge
Thanks for the knowledge. One love all
Thank you ! Very helpful ! Awesome job!
You the man Brian thanks for the links to the o ring and y pipe 👍
Thank you for the video man, very helpful.
Good morning Brian have a great weekend….
Thank you for this video! It was exactly what I needed to fix my leaking coolant system! And I'm not super mechanically inclined, but I can follow instructions, and these are pristine! With buying parts, coolant, a drain tube, throttle intake cleaner, and picks, it cost me about $100 and a little over an hour. Plus I cleaned the throttle body, which I'm sure would've added onto Ford's $600 quote that took several days to get. Thanks again!
a non-ford dealership just quoted $698. For an upper radiator hose and the "t" piece junction... but I can't help but feel like this dealer ship charging upwards of $400 dollars for labor and waiting two days to tell me all of this is totally worth it... nope haha !
Another awesome video. Thank you!!
Tackling this tomorrow. Wish me luck.
Excellent video and great work, thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the video! Just did this today on my truck. Only issue was I could not find the rad drain valve. Looked all over the passenger side lower section of the radiator. Ended up just popping upper hose off rad and letting it slowly drain down to the level of the Y hose and then changed it. 2017 F-150 XLT 5.0.
