Warms the heart to see the younger generations still know how to "twist a wrench". I was beginning to think everybody born 1970 and later and forgotten the satisfaction (and savings) that come with doing it yourself. (of course the gray-brains among us, myself included, have had to make peace with the marriage of computer and automobile along the way). Regardless, job well done.
Bravo!!!!!!! Clear and easy to understand. I now know where the thermostat, thermostat housing, tension pully, water pump, and I know how to change and replace the belts.Awesome job, I had been watching several videos so I can do this with my 2011.
Thanks J.R., doing this job on my 2012 Muskrat. Your presentation is sooooo easy to watch and follow. You got skills, dude!!! Saved me some serious coin. Today, most shops want upwards of $800.00 to do this pump replacement. Thanks so much for your help!!!
Best video I have seen on the pump replacement! Ford here wants 600.000 labor and another 175.00 parts to do this repair. Thanks to you I think I can handle this myself. Do some more videos.
2011 Ford Mustang 3.7 V6 Automatic. Over 200,000 miles and no water pump issues. I did do a coolant flush and replaced the thermostat. Other than that, it runs fine.
Great video made it easy to replace the Water Pump on my 2012 3.7. One thing a Ford tech pointed out to me is not to mess with the seal on the bottom of the Water pump where the O ring goes. This is the timing cover seal and to clean it before reassembly but never try and remove it. I opted for the Ford replacement kit which also includes the hose with the check valve in it and the lighter 3 bolt pulley. My car's pump lasted 133,000 miles, I'm sure its good for the rest of the life of the car now. Thanks again.
Thank you bro. Just changed my water pump out in my 2014 v6 3.7 following your video! $501 vs $100, I'll take the save! Now tomorrow I'm changing my ac belt because mine has a crack in it. Feeling pretty good. 👍
@@luisjorge7344 when your water pump is leaking coolant. If your coolant reservoir is empty or keeps emptying. My car was leaking coolant and overheating.
Thank you so much!! I need a new water pump and wanted to install the new one myself but was a bit nervous. I now feel fully confident I can accomplish this project. Thanks for the detailed info and great camera work.
Incredibly thankful for this video you made! Thank you! Watched the video once and completed my swap in about 45 minutes. Got the same gates replacement as you so I knew it would work lol. Saved me a lot of money!
Hello I'm a retired mechanic you did a very good job on the video last one I did was 5 years ago and I watched your video just as a refresher course I don't know what it is with these cars but I've gone through two water pumps already on my 2011 very low mileage the third one I'm putting in happens to be a gates so we'll see how that does amazing they don't make cars like they used to my 73 duster I have had for 45 years I put a new water pump back in then and it's still as good as the day I put it in I have a 69 GTO for the last 30 years put a new pump in that 30 years ago and it's still as good as new this car here seems like you got to change the water pump every time you want to flush your antifreeze go figure other than that I like the car but I think it's a design problem with this particular motor anyway good job thank you
Your issues with the water pump are probably more related to the "Orange" coolant that those cars require. This has been updated with the POAT "Motorcraft Yellow Coolant" that Ford updated after all the problems, I believe in 2017 or 18.
big help! I didn't remove any hoses and got away with it! Also i did torque each fastener: 89 in-lb on the water pump and 71 in-lbs on the thermostat manifold. my water pump came with the gasket and one O Ring. Had to go back to the store for the two O rings that seal the thermostat manifold. One O Ring was $11! thanks again
Thank you for posting this! This video walked me through the process super fast and easy, only took 2 hours - by far the best video I had found that explained this.
Good video. For anyone looking to do the work themselves, I would recommend removing the negative battery cable first and then draining the coolant into a container like an oil catch pan before getting started on this project. The coolant can be reused if it's in good condition and not having the possibility of electrically charged components getting wet is a smart move. For those wanting to know the torque specs: 1. Water pump is 89 in-lbs.; evenly tighten all bolts to spec, then give each a quarter turn. 2. Thermostat housing is 71 in-lbs.; evenly tighten all bolts to spec, then give each a quarter turn. 3. Water pump pulley bolts is 18 ft-lbs. Because torque wrenches don't register in those low in-lbs. ranges, you'll need to purchase a digital torque adapter for your regular wrench. They can be pricey, but overtightening those bolts will cost you well in excess of the money spent.
This video was instrumental in helping me replace my water pump just now, so thank you for that. And for my fellow high mileage/lives where it’s rusty people, you’re not going to be able to get the thermostat assembly off as easy as he did. Get a pry bar and some wd40 and just keep gently working it until you get it off. And he’s not kidding the bolts that go into the thermostat and waterpump can strip real easy I stripped one for the thermostat but it seems to not be leaking so I may have got lucky.
When I order the pump I was given an extra water pump gasket. There was on already on the new pump but the pump also had a new gasket in a bag…. They were identical so I don’t know what happen but it’s working fine and nothing is leaking I wish you could have explained how to properly drain the radiator but this was super helpful!!
Glad you made this follow up video showing how to fix it. Gave me the confidence to do it after watching your video. I ordered the Motocraft pump replacement kit PW575 / BR3Z8501N and has all the stuff needed and more. It has that new coolant return hose w check valve but taking that one off to replace was annoying. So if someone else is looking to do this, use the other V6 pump video guys bungie cord pull back method and don’t take off most of those hoses on the thermostat. Didn’t use any sealant either per manufactures specs. Car is running great now! Thank you!
@wahsoul3000 so i just ordered the motorcraft kne that cones with the check valve hose , do i have to adjust or move the check valve or just leave it as it is? and the metal ring that clamps on the hose and check valve do i leave that as is or does it have to be moved as a clamp?
@@DJPickee Leave as is. The metal crimp ring is there to keep the check valve in place and let you know there is one in the hose. Just take the old hose off and put the new one on. Good luck with the repair!
@wahsoul3000 just changed my water pump but loss of coolant, so i refilled more coolant in the tank between the bottom line and top line, drove car around to let it get to normal temp then idle for a bit then after i let my car completely cool down went back to check on coolant level it dropped an inch below the bottom line, my question is do i need to fill this ba k up to the cold fill line top or between?
Ford dealer gave me a cost of $1600 and I have to wait till Dec. Thanks for showing how simple this is. I'll be ordering pump tonight. I'm curious why you didn't also replace thermostat.
Hey man, thanks for the video! Make sure you replace your overflow tube with one that has a check valve. Yours doesn't appear to have one. Without the check valve, air will flow into the cooling system which will make your water pump faulty once again.
very informative video mine is making some noise and I am double checking to make sure and because of this video I am going to go ahead and change it out myself. Thanks JR, I was worried about the serpentine belt but relaxed now on doing it myself. thanks for the video. Short and sweet.
Good concise video thanks for sharing. My kids 2013 has the bearing going out. Rattling sound when it's cold. The pulley has play in it. Car has about 165K on it.
My pump went out at 49,000 miles. Ironically it happened the day after I had my airbags replaced under a recall. What are the odds of that? I called the Ford service manager and told him its too ironic of a coincidence my car is spewing coolant the exact day after they worked on it and he just laughed saying its a coincidence.. I still say they pressure tested or did something to my cooling system without my knowledge to cause the failure in an attempt to up-sell me on services. Anyways, I have a bad back so there was no way I could do this myself even with this great video. I found a shop in town that did the water pump and charged me $245 for parts and labor which I found fair. I have ordered the check valve coolant hose to replace so there are no further issues of air entering the system, it is a factory service bulletin on the 3.7. The part number for the coolant return hose is #ER3Z8276A. Ford actually replaces that part under warranty when they do the pump swap. Thanks for the video.
This exact issue happened to me. Toke my mustang last week for an oil change and they ask to do the recall. I said yes to replace. Then they called to recommend a coolant flush. I told them just a change and thought we were on the same page. Instead they did a flush. A week later (now) I had a puddle of coolant on the ground. I toke it back and they told me it was coincidental that the water pump is leaking. They told me it will cost $450. I called the manager but no answer. Then the service guy called back and said his gonna “help me out” by cutting the cost in half. I believe its not coincidental and are taking full advantage of the airbag recall. Does anyone think we have a case here? Mines is a 2012 with 48,000 miles on it. Definitely keep it in good shape and only toke it to the same dealer for maintenance or anything else thats wrong.
What Dommer 3.7 says is important. Mine failed @44k miles but pump is fine. Seal leaked because there was no check valve on overflow tube. I would run out and replace that tube before water pump seal fails again regardless if it is a Gates pump or not. Much thanks for ur video though. Saved me buying a pulley wrench tool because everyone takes serpentine belt off first, which makes no sense.
My Mustang looses coolant also I took it to dealer when it was under warranty and they said they didn't know why it was low on coolant. So a couple years ago I had the coolant changed and now 2 yrs later its starting to loose coolant again with no trace of leakage and no murky oil . So I am confused what it could be. I wanted to know its now 2012 and did this fix your car leaking problem and what did you torque those bolts to ?? thanks
James Roy I did not know the torque specs so I just tightened them. To my liking in a kind of crisscross pattern. You can look up the torque specs but I didnt have a torque wrench for smaller values
Thanks. No problems since I take it? I recently looked up the recommend motorcraft replacement part and it comes with a new pulley, a 3 - bolt, but noticed yours is a 4 bolt and was likely stock. I'll have to check if mine is also.
one more question (been waiting on the time and weather to do mine here). I noticed in the viseo that after you reomved the bolts to the pump it seemed stuck on tight still. You cut and return and the pump is free. What extra effort if any was involved to loosen or remove it, a good tug, a tap with a mallet ....? Thanks
On the thermostat housing i noticed you didnt use any gasket sealant? just not needed? and btw, thx for vid, its been years since ive replaced one myself, rather get my hands dirty than pay the $$$ to have a shop do it.
Please if u can get to this comment that would help alot.. What do i need to do special to replace my water pump are they any secrets or literally just do what you did in the video? Also what the steps to bleed air out after install the new pump
@@DeezNuts-qu5xn I have a 2017 Mustang 3.7L V6 and mine gave out at 60k miles. I want to do this tomorrow morning but I know my car is slightly newer so I'm not sure if the procedure is exactly the same.
@@OFFICIALRover yes. I think the only thing different was the bolts for the belt plate has a different amount of bolts than the one in the video. Everything else the same prettt much
Thanks for sharing! just hit 63K miles on my 14' V6 and ford said the water pump is leaking. 60K warranty wouldnt ya know. I have never seen any leaks. They want 750 to do this. Ahh yah, no thanks, What brand water pump are you using?
Wait a tic.. I was under the impression that the 3.7's WP was internal 🤨 Heck, I completely blacklisted this engine in my mind but if my WP is really that easy to get to then heck, I have a NewYears project to get done! (2015 V6 owner)
2015 Mustang V6 water pump o- ring part # FPG35772 this is bigger than the other one is black the other one is red small part #FPG36111…..Thermostat gasket part #35991 and Thermostat part #65590….. all these cost like $40 save time going back-and-forth to O’Rellys auto parts …
Anca Potocean I noticed it needed to be replaced because i could see it leaking from where the shaft comes out of the water pump that the pulley bolts to.

I know this doesn't have anything to do with cars, but ur mustache is what dreams are made off. I'm a fan of ur hair also.
Use a torque wrench and follow torque procedures if you want to do it right> 89 inch lbs, then 45 Degree turn of the wrench.
My 2014 has a small drop under it. Dip stick looks good. Hoses an tee. Coming from drivers side im assuming its water pump. Glad its a outside pump.

Wait a tic.. I was under the impression that the 3.7's WP was internal 🤨
Heck, I completely blacklisted this engine in my mind but if my WP is really that easy to get to then heck, I have a NewYears project to get done! (2015 V6 owner)
FWD applications, the pump is internal. Edge, Explorer, Fusion to name a few.
Cool video.
Very helpful thanks 💯
GJ man real good video
2015 Mustang V6 water pump o- ring part # FPG35772 this is bigger than the other one is black the other one is red small part #FPG36111…..Thermostat gasket part #35991 and Thermostat part #65590….. all these cost like $40 save time going back-and-forth to O’Rellys auto parts …
Yeah it's a 3.7L. I think mine's leaking at about 75,000 miles.
im about 72k i started her up and it started forming a decent sized puddle when i gave it some gas
Mine's got over 77K and I noticed the puddle last night. I'll probably be doing the same.
Just had the same thing happen to mine at 72k miles.
Wtf... Mine gave out at 57k
mine started at 47k >.
Thanks bro!
You didn’t need to take the hoses off the thermostat assembly.
Thank you so much!!!!
Rock auto is showing a chain driven internal water pump for the 3.7 v6 Mustang. What gives ???
They are wrong.
Pretty video
Just changed my 2013 saved 400
When you will know that the wather pump needs to be replace?? From the belt coms a so sound?
Anca Potocean I noticed it needed to be replaced because i could see it leaking from where the shaft comes out of the water pump that the pulley bolts to.
