- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 ต.ค. 2024
- In a previous video we removed the timing belt and water pump on the 2011 Subaru Outback. Had a bit of a spell getting the fan off but that issue is solved and now it's time to get it all back together.
-Enjoy!

I have carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands. I had surgery on my right wrist a few years ago, but my left hand has worsened since then. My surgeon recommended wearing wrist braces at night and this has made a huge difference. It's worth a try if you haven't already. Good luck.
Worked for an old timer mechanic back in the early 70's when I was in high school. The first time I helped him change a water pump he had me get his box of wood dowels. He had a number of sizes and lengths. He pulled out a couple and stuck them in a couple water mounting holes, slid the gasket on over the dowels then slid on the water pump. He then started a couple bolts hand tight, pulled out the dowels and installed the rest of the bolts. I have used this trick a number of times to keep the gasket in place when changing water pumps. I still have my box of dowels in my tool box.
Why I have the respect for Eric O that I do, is he shows his mistakes, laughs them off and starts over, it is what it is. None of us are perfect. 👊🏻 respect Mr O!!! Oh and yelling “Chevy thunder” had me laughing 😂
He is human, like the rest of us trying to stumble through life.
@@jackgreen412 Bit weadk on the math not being able to rhyme off 12 x 8
As real as it gets..
We all make mistakes here and there ! At least it's not Morr or Fab's !You know doing it twice to make it right ! Lol
@@alexs3447 Good thing, cuz it was 12x9.
"Getting older sucks".Yeah - that's exactly what my brother said yesterday. He's 84. I agreed with him. I'm 79. Then I went back to watching your videos. Informative, interesting, AND humorous. What more could one ask for? Keep'em coming.
Is it the carpal tunnel or the arthur itis?
I think all mechanics were this honest and funny! My grandfather had mayonnaise tops screwed to the ceiling with the jars full with all his screws and bolts and nuts!
My dad was a peanut butter jar guy. When he died, I inherited about 50 peanut butter jars filled with bent rusty nails.
Did the baby food jars for a while ,then got a plastic box with the slide out drawers.
Everytime Eric O yells “CHEVY THUNDER!!!” an angel gets its wings.
Appreciated you not editing out the missing dust gasket on the water pump. Nobody’s perfect. Nice job as always.
I thought he as going to skip it. 😂
Jmtbmta
"Gettin' older SUCKS!" Yes it does. But what sucks worse is NOT getting older. ;) Another job well done!
I feel for you Eric I also suffer from Psoriatic Arthritis so I fully understand your comment about getting old. My nails also suck.
I really appreciate the confidence that Eric has in all of us when he says, "If I can do it, you can do it." That being said, I'm pretty sure there's a bunch of things that he can do that I certainly can not.
Like electrical problems.
Like landing Mrs O 😂.
I know…(baby food jars). I laughed out loud. My grandpa nailed the lids under a shelf on workbench wall and then would spin the bottles on and off when he needed something. He probably learned that trick from his popular mechanics subscription. Good stuff Eric.
Yep, that's what I've got in my garage
Both my grandfather and my dad. And I think the Popular Mechanics thing is 100% accurate.
@@BobSakamoto I still have the outside Disney Christmas Mobil my grandpa and dad made for us kids in the late sixties. Still have the original Popular Mechanics book they got the directions out of as well. The good old days. 😃
my gramps nailed the covers to the outside of a 6 inch wooden drum and mounted it on the wall like a roll of paper towel. spin the wheel and pick your bolt!
One of my grandfathers was not that organized but he did use baby food jars for nuts, bolts, and other things. An uncle has (or had?) an impressive array of the jars and he is well organized and efficient about it. He has a respect for good tools that my grandparents lacked. I wish my family had subscribed to Popular Mechanics back then -- but that was not the way things were.
Nice work. As I commented in part 1, my kid & I did one of these two years ago, first timing belt job ever, and I'm relieved to note we did everything right including: struggling to keep the water pump gasket on, forgetting the little seal between the water pump & oil pump and having to do it again, and dropping a bolt on the splash shield in the corner instead of the easier one in the middle. The smaller timing cover was already cracked by Another Shop™️, so we put a couple little beads of RTV in the seam, enough to help hold it on but not so much as to be difficult to remove later. Everything worked great, all the way to the scene of the crash earlier this year. 😕
He didn't mention why you have to be sure to torque the crank bolt. Because if Sumudda guy didn't do it, then the pully comes loose and ruins the end of the crankshaft by the time you pull over to find out the source of the noise. The "good news" is Loktite 609 has been gluing mine for 15 years and 150,000 miles.
@@johnpublic6582 the book says to torque it to a certain number, and then to a much higher number, and if it doesn't reach the higher number within 75° of additional rotation, replace the crank bolt. I was going to the Subaru dealer for something else anyway and a crank bolt was only like $4, so I just went ahead and replaced it. And torqued it to spec. 👍
Did this for 22years, and I'm glad I don't have to go under the hood anymore! You and Ray are good hands that have taken my place in the tech industry. Much success to you two!
Ray did the Exact opposite of everything Eric said you Should do on these cars. Ray bought crappy chinese parts, he didn't do the whole seal/gasket kit as mentioned at 10:25 and he didn't take care removing the water pump bolts. Now it's 3 months later and that poor Outback owner still doesn't have his car back. If he'd taken it to someone like Eric, the car would be fixed and good for another 10 years /100k miles.
Easiest timing belt job to do these are so easy do hundreds of them a year 20:15 nice work Eric O easy peasy @South Main Auto Repair LLC
9:52 brake clean sideways sprayer…. Kind of like me in the morning. I laughed the rest of the video. Brilliant Mr. O you are one hell of a comedian!
Love the baby food jar bit 💙... when I was growing up, we had a ton of glass baby food jars with metal lids. They got used for everything from parts (nuts/bolts) to jello. That was decades ago and I think I only have 2 left :(
I use plastic pill bottles now. I remember my grandfather used penut jars.
Thanks so much for bringing us along on your videos, I’m sure we are in the way looking over your shoulder!!
Haha I was moving my head trying to.....
Excellent mechanic,great commentary,great sense of humor. 👍🏼
The "sideways sprayer" comment had me falling out of my chair! 😅
@@jondiaz3475 Yes, that was hilarious and so true.
Not only does grandpa have the baby food jars but they're also mounted to a revolving piece of wood. 😊
My wife thought about moving over to a Subaru SUV from a Toyota Highlander but your videos have Helped her come to her Senses about Subaru and Faults. 🤪👎
It's because of you I yell out "Hey, it's that guy" when someone honks. Or "Chevy Thunder!" when someone romps on it lmao. 😂😂
The baby food jars,,,, classic. My Grandfather had the lids screwed in above his workbench. Classic stuff.
Aisin waterpump kits all the way never use anything other then aisin on Nissan, Toyota or Subi nothing better then Aisin no matter the cost Good video as always Eric O @South Main Auto Repair LLC
People would be amazed how Many times a job is left to go do other things waiting for parts or customer approval or other jobs while waiting Making videos seamless is not as easy as others think 38:00 Eric O @South Main Auto Repair LLC
After watching Ray’s debacle I’d be tempted to put anti-seize on those water pump bolts haha.
That was what I was thinking! That’s exactly what I would do. Back in the day had a dodge ram mini van 88 vintage put a thermostat in and didn’t put anti seize on the bolts. A couple years later tried to take them out and broke one off, they were screwing into aluminum not good!
I agree too. its the difference between a mechanic and a mechanic! Rays work is more of a get-you-home fix. As long as he has a pry bar and hammer!!!@@earlestes8649
@@earlestes8649 Yeah I think it makes sense to think long term for us southern folks, but as Eric says in this video, the car won't last another 5-6 years before it's in the crusher because rust will claim it long before it ever needs a new water pump.
Honestly I think the bolt ray broke off was crossthreaded in there. I don't think that was corrosion like he said
The video is great. But don't forget Eric's greatest piece of advice here: buy Factory replacement parts. Everything. Two bucks more, but completely worth the Peace of Mind.
I applaude your brutal honesty and look out for your customers best interest
I appreciate all the work you do to get these video’s out to us. You are an awesome mechanic. I honestly cannot believe some of the negative comments you get on here, and you know it is from people that don’t know sh@t.
Don't forget about using cool-whip containers as Tupperware 😂
I hadn’t thought about Grandpa’s baby food jar lids screwed into the 2X4 with those jars twisted onto those lids for decades!! Thank you!!
Look at Eric O killing it with the torch weld❤
cannot thank you enough for uploading this, as I need to do exactly same job next week (and have never done before). Feel much more relaxed now that I can manage without changing the timing due to my lack of experience.
Eric O. is a brother I would really enjoy working with, he is truly my kinda guy, honest, smart, and comical Chevy Thunder! Lol, 😎👍🏾
I did have a smile when you mentioned the baby food jars with the square nuts. I'm old enough to have a few in my basement.
My Grand Father had the lids for the baby food jars nailed to a beam above his work bench then he would just screw the jars up into the lids. Then all you had to do was look up to see which jar had the bolt, nut, washer, etc.. you were looking for, reach up and unscrew the jar and bam! Bob's your Mothers brother!
When you pulled the cardboard off the rad it instantly reminded me of WHY I didn't remove the cardboard in a past life. I didn't put the frigging fan assembly back on and there was just cardboard left taped on. That was a morning job and it hit me at the end of the day. "Hey, you gotta bring that truck back; I gotta check something". Slap all that back on, check that I didn't forget anything else, and forgot about it until just this viewing of this video.
Luckily it was a small town and he only drove it a mile or so, but it was a huge mistake worth kicking myself over. Hey, kids didn't have years of experience gained yet but I'll chock that one up as a learning moment. Told them AFTER I fixed it and that was my first experience of, "it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission" in which I'd learn more of a few years later in life in another venture. "Heh, I forgot to put the cooling fans back in. I was so proud of the time I got it done with that I should have known something was actually wrong". Got a chuckle in return and he still came back so I guess all was actually forgiven...good people.
Its good to hear Josh is still there. Seems like a solid dude.
Thanks for being honest and ethical Eric. Renews my faith in humanity.
… You don’t know how much he changed the customer. I kid.
I have always aspired to graduate to the baby food jars under the shelf over the workbench. Just seems right.
I have been to many Estate Sales and I head to the shed or whatever to see the work area these men leave once they have passed away or moved on to a home somewhere. I go and see these with great respect and think of all that went on there, if those old tools could talk.
I got a new tool a few weeks ago. A plastic stapler/welder. And I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!! I've used it on so many different things already. A badly torn bumper cover, a busted headlight clip, busted tail light clip, broken door handle, splash shield, and I'm sure I missed a few things. With more repairs to come. Best $50 I've spent in a while.
That has to be the best Chevy thunder to date and I love how he went back to talking like nothing ever happened
I like how you were able to fill the radiator without pouring half of it down the front. I do not possess those skills! I need a funnel every time.
I like the way you treat your customer the way you would treat yourself, if not better! As always you make it look easy!
Oh yeah use those NSK bearings! As the official bearing aficionado of this channel, it brings me great joy when you use NSK bearings!
when that bell rings , it reminds me of the old country stores with the bell on the door , or maybe gas pump bells that would ring when the customer would roll over the hose .
Always like your videos you make them into two arts rather than make it super long. Very interesting repair which I would never try myself if I had a car like that. thanks Eric.
Just what I needed halfway through my shift , a new video from SMA and Dr O
Right next to my grandfather's jar of square head nuts and bolts was his 10 jars of used nails of all sizes he spent hours straitening out.
Yepper, I can watch, learn and even have pop corn seeing you get errrrr done! Thanks for your training and easy show and tell. I'm telling that was a good one. Be safe and thank you Eric.
I sympathize about your carpal tunnel/arthritis issues. Arthritis in my knees and hands is now my constant companion. I was fortunate to be able to retire last year since I was getting to the point where I would have no longer been able to do my job. Life is good and I'm enjoying being retired, but I'd certainly enjoy it more if I felt physically the way I did 20 or even 10 years ago.Sigh.
Know what you mean , but keep moving or things stop working ! Getting old is not for sissies ..........
shooting sideways like me in the morning. little gems dropped in make the videos more fun to watch, lol
"Sideways sprayer" --ha! That's actually a very good sign.
Love your videos! The correct pronunciation of Aisin is " Eye Sin". I worked for Chrysler for many years and when we got the Aisin truck transmission, they made sure we all knew the right way to say it. Rock on! Cummins Thunder!
The fact you show the little forgets is why we watch. Also the visits by Mrs O. 99% of auto content never prove they are similar to the rest of us. You always show your integrity and you don’t even have to try. Bravo sir we appreciate your content and our favorite S.M.A stare Mrs O. Thank you team S.M.A.
I love the sound you and Rain man Ray use for the brake clean, I just can't understand why he uses 2 cans to do one brake rotor and then looks for can number 3? Any loved the video as always and thanks for the closure.
Man, it is gonna be one SAD DAY in central New York... and for TH-cam, when Eric & Mrs. O finally say; "Alright, time to go enjoy our lives" and close up shop. And I don't think it will be because of getting tired of fixing people's vehicles. IMO it'll be because of the non-sensical ways of the NY State DMV, the back-asswards thinking of the auto makers and the ignorance of parts manufacturers and such. I'll certainly miss these outstanding videos. I don't know crap about working on vehicles, but I love watching someone who does, and does it with honesty and integrity. There's just no substitute for that.
Got the baby food jars. Lids screwed to a roller near the ceiling. Installed by last owner of the house, but we've been here 26 years. Bet I've gone to Lowes for fasteners that might have been in one of those jars.
Your tensioner pulley on the belt will always be on one side or the other of the crank pulley (depending on which way the engine spins). Since your power is pulling on the belt at the crank-- the slack will always form on the opposite side of that crank-- so that's where your tensioner will always be. If you put the tensioner somewhere in the middle-- the load resistance of everything after your tensioner would cause the belt to pull too hard and would always bottom out your tensioner springs and hammer on it. So the "load train" has to be unbroken-- meaning that your belt has to be pulled tight from the crank -- all the way around to the last loaded pulley-- and then your tensioner will always be the very last thing in the train-- just before it hits the crank again. Tensioner pulley is always the caboose. :)
Regardless of where the camera is we get the idea. Thanks for bringing us along 🙂
+1 on the blast shield. My first car was an MGB. When removing the crank pulley I gently pried it loose and then rocked it back and forth pulling until it suddenly popped off and broke the radiator. Expensive lesson for a poor student.
Watching Eric reinstalling that belly pan after retrieving that dropped radiator fan bolt , all I could think was "Gutsy move... doing all that reassembly and now he'll drop that square nut in the same 'no man's land' again " I know I would have . LOL .
Great video on the timing system on the Subi appreciate it!! Hahahah I actually went out today to the baby jar collection and grabbed a few of those square fasteners along with some wingnuts for a project.
Aisin is one of the biggest OEM parts supplier for Toyota, Honda Nissan and Subaru. I worked at the Toyota plant in Georgetown Kentucky unloading parts. Aisin and Denso are the biggest suppliers for the (import) manufacturers. We always pronounced Aisin as Ison, they also made a lot of hubs, rotors and drums for the Camry. Arvin Sango provided the exhaust, Pioneer made a lot of the stereos. Johnson Controls made the seats and some of the batteries. Seat belts came from Canada via a company called QSS which stood for Quality Safety Systems. I used to know pretty much what every supplier made but I left that job in 1998 to pursue a plumbing career and now I've forgotten a lot of the things that I knew by heart then
I have an old coffee can full of square nuts, slotted screws and a few Edison based fuses my grandkids will have to throw out. I’ll never use them but they remind of my Dad and grandfather ~
You can’t forget about the Garcia Vega cigar boxes filled with random goodies.
Yes. And when cigar boxes were made out of wood!
Baby food jar trick is as old as time itself.
Another thing that's popular to use for small hardware is pill bottles.
Congratulations Eric.
I enjoyed so much your work but it was more appreciated that you share your knowledge and RECOMMENDATIONS 😊
BIG HUG from CDMX, México.
Great Video as always! Flate rate tip, fill the block on these Subaru's through the upper radiator hose Wayyyy faster.
Oh yeah, the old side ways sprayer. Been there done that.
Eric O, love your unbeeped $%^&&*, comments, I have never done, or known, a mechanic who always used perfect King's English. Your sense of humor is also refreshing. Your diagnostic skills are unparalleled, as well as your clear calm low key explanations of what you are doing and why. Very refreshing!! Keep up the great work. Your videos are GREAT!!
Back in the early 70's my grandfather had numerous gerber jars full of square nuts and flat heads ,machine flats , wood flats etc. I still have his Yankee screwdriver ! With the drill type chuck on it and it still works but its awkward .
Love how that RAW Chevy power got your attention. It's AWESOME😨😨😨
Sir great video, this is how it should be done. You show people exactly what to do for the ones that don’t know and have no experience. Thank you very much.
Tip for39.58. Don't fight water pump. Get 2 or 3 longer 6mx1.0 bolts and cut the heads off. Then thread into boltholes for bolts that aren't recessed. Then can slide gasket and pump on.
As a mechanic who was taught without air tools, served my apprenticeship on 80's 90's Citroens. I am inspired by your 'limited access' air tools.....they make light work of tight spaces....I'm going shopping 😂
❤ more trimming belts all makes and models. Eric I'm 56yrs old love your respect for the customer. I've been a auto tech for 35yrs.
For many decades, I liked Airplane Form-a-Gasket. Loc-Tite and Permatex both make a version. Works good, lasts a long time, never hardens. In theory. Works great for those metal gaskets and most other applications.
Plus, I really like the smell.
For reinstalling old hoses back on new parts, such as water pumps, I always used a skim coat of RTV, like the blue. Just enough to barely cover the inside of the hose. Depending on how old the hose is, it'll help keep it from leaking, and it helps with the install.
Also, they make a cable-operated tool for those type of clamps. They work good, last a long time. I'm sure they don't work in EVERY situation, but I can't recall having them not.
I learned long ago from an oldie about using Permatex high tac on all water/coolant related parts.(when needed)
Not since then have i ever had leak issues.
Great stuff
Yes, the jars full of nuts, bolts & washers screwed into the lids, bolted to the bottom of the shelf.
I had a 96 Legacy wagon . It went to the great shredder in the sky with 315,000 miles on it. It still got 32 MPG and the only rust was one hole on the frame by the right rear tire in the NY salt belt. It still ran great but, all of the CV joints were bad so it was driven until it decided it didn't have any use for the drive shaft . It was the best vehicle I ever owned as far as reliable. I did nothing to it except drive it . One night we had two feet of snow. In front of my driveway there was a drift that was higher than the hood. It took a few tries but it pounded through it and plowed two foot of snow a mile down the road until I reached the main road. It was in the later 90's that Subaru opened a factory in the US and they went to sht.
a trick I used in the past was to use a small binder clip to hold the timing belts at its marks while reassembling
What nice is I can pause your work for mine, then come back 6 hrs later and finish 😂
I feel you Eric on the carpal tunnel 2 wrist surgeries and 2 elbow surgeries after 40 years turning wenches and using my hands as hammers, just a spectator now great videos by the way
Eric.. try using a couple binder clips to hold the new belt on the correct tooth when installing... makes it SO much easier!
I love your confidence that "if I can do it, you can do it", but there are things I would rather pay YOU to do..
Put an Aisin complete assembly water pump in my '05 3.0L Eclipse, along with the Aisin timing kit.
Wouldn't have put in anything else.
Zero issues. Highly recommend.
On the heat shield why not put a nut between the two shields for a spacer, then another nut on top. I understand the welding also if the shield is falling apart on everywhere else, but if you have one that is still partially intact that would be a quick fix and hold up also. Keep up the good work, for a self taught mechanic you definitely have more knowledge than some of the tech school grads, some of them are the use the scan tool and parts thrower's. For the ones that have the knowledge of testing and tracking down the stuff you do, much respect to them. Hat's off to you and keep teaching everyone else here!
Stupid as it may sound, it is really encouraging to hear that you struggle with things like getting the water pump in place without dropping the gasket. Maybe you should change your saying to "If I can have trouble doing it, so can you!"
HAHA yep take a sheetmetal screw thru a jar lid to the bench, throw whatever hardware you like inside and screw the jar into the lid and presto...organized. Learned that from my Grandpa!
Great videos. Just 1 suggestion, if you could call out socket sizes while doing the job would be greatly appreciated. Other than that I love all your videos. Keep up the amazing work! 💪
Good true mechanic. Bar none . Have a great day. Oh he
Started the brake clean thing Not Ray .
Great start to the morning. Hi everyone
when you know, you know, and i know. junior high metalshop- project 6 baby food jars on each side of a 4 sided spinner- spot weld up spinner and lids to it.
wish i still had it.
The hatches on the US submarine fleet seal metal to metal at pressure. There is an o-ring but it only is for the first couple hundred feet.
Brake clean….Rainman Ray would be so proud….
Grandpa had baby food jars w/lids nailed to underside of shelves. In fact I recently used that to explain how much previous generation repurposed a lot of things. Beer bottle caps, upside-down, nailed to plywood, to scrape mud off shoes. Farmers and mechanics.
My Grandpa had a bunch of shelves [
(2×4's) mounted to the back garage wall with baby food jar lids screwd to the bottom. The jars had various connectors, fasteners, clips, cotter pins, etcetera. You get the idea.
Eric, I remember one day cleaning up my grandpa's yard and finding a 3/4" steel rod with a square tapered end with the other end round on the outside with a square female end. Both ends had a hole drilled through them. I asked grandpa what it was, and he said, "A drive shaft for a Model A". He said back when he was young, one guy would lift the car while the other changed the tire. He was the family mechanic fixing everyone's cars and rebuilding motors. He was a welder by trade and welded the two largest tanks ever built in America at the time. Think fuel storage. I miss him still and it's been over close to 40 years since he passed.
The last house I rented, the garage had a couple full jars screwed to a shelf with nuts bolts and screws.
And I thought it neat as growing up my dad had a few jars of the same thing. Random fasteners kept over the years because you never know when you need one lol.
Nice work. If there's voting, I vote for the Making of a Video video.
I've never owned a Subaru so I can't identify with the timing belt change but my dad did have the baby jars filled with screws, etc. but not with the lids screwed to a board, just filling a cabinet over his work bench! I kinda miss that sight as he's been gone for over 30 yrs. now.
your memories surely honor him and will make him feel admired and always loved.
Yup, got all kinds of square nuts and carriage bolts stashed away in the barn. You never know when one might come in handy. One of my most exciting finds at a flea market was a box about 8 inches x 8 inches x 6 inches full of an assortment of springs that I had to have for $5.00. May actually use one someday.
When I was in the Aisin plants we always called it Eye Sin.
Nice! Knowing the correct pronunciation!
