Thank you this helped tremendously. I had a leak. I was pretty sure it was a water pump. This is confirming it. Thank you for posting. I appreciate you.
I’m not sure if you can ,but I know this Detroit diesel has critical national back order of the water pump.The tractor sat for three weeks until we got the new water pump. If that operation was available we probably would have been told By Detroit parts I hope.
I’m going to guess that it leaked coolant when you removed the water pump because you drained the coolant from under the radiator. Last time I replaced my water pump I only drained coolant from the side of the engine.
If the clutch was still operational couldn't you have just swapped over the clutch assembly to a new water pump? Assuming if thats even an option I think it would have been a lot cheaper then getting the whole new $1000 assembly with new clutch no? Not raging just curious is all.
After I watched this video i fixed by myself saved about $1-2k. Thank you and please more video

My water pump isn't leaking, but there's metal flakes in my coolant. Does that mean it's going bad?

Most don't realize there is a drain on the block.
Driver side below filter housing
I suggest you to put silicone?👍
Mine leaking and it's caused my oil pressure Guage to not work right u ever seen that happen
Good video. Thank u
Do you know after how many miles it was replaced
Sorry I didn’t remember.
@@bigrigfix my truck only has 380k so not yet I guess
No reason to replace it if it's not causing issues
What if I just swapped the water pump and take the old clutch to the new pump? Saves 500$ 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
Thanks please look like and subscribe.

Its usually the speed sensor on the pump that throws a code. You can buy just the sensor.
I get to do this in a motel parking lot in the morning I got the pump I paid 950 will get back over 300 for the core. Mine has a leak and is growling.
I have replaced injectors cups and resealed all injectors in my dd15 on Orailly parking lot...
Why replace the water pump? Why not the rubber gasket only?
Because the water leaking out of the weep hole not the seal.
@@bigrigfix can you reuse old seal
6 to 8 week back order now.
They are all over Amazon
I have massage Water Pump System
Active
Problem Detected
where did you get the bomb man?? can you helpme please?
What bomb man mean.
23:46 how did you get that. Where to get those papers?
At 5:16 you put the water pump in vulnerable position (dirty sandy area )
Ok.
Big Rig Fix appreciate the videos tho sir
Thanks for watching.
How do you tighten (and the torque) the belt at the end? And is it a good Idea to replace the belt too?
did you put silicone on the water pump?
great 👍
Is that water pump really $750 bucks
I’m not sure now call your local dealer.
Its $1400 now. If you are throwing a code and its not leaking just change the speed sensor.
nM is metric not inch pounds
“Newton-metres”
It’s not hard too drain it two 6 inch ext and 3/4 lol
Damn your videos are littered with ads. Alright imma head out for good.
Did it cost you anything its still free info.
Always something to cry about.. geeze.
This video and the ads is really not his problem (its somethin else lol
Water pumps sell for 300$ unless your buying from the dealer with no shop account then you are throwing your money away
Where can I find a water pump at for that price?
Where did you buy it?
Good job!!
