Great video- I guess you can only hope that chips from the impeller don't circulate around then get stuck in the head ports somewhere and restrict the water flow..... I had that happen to me years ago on another vehicle causing a serious overheating issue....
That’s what I was a little worried about. But the only way to find out is to either run it and see or remove the heads. Pulling the heads on these coyote engines isn’t real easy so we opted to just run it and see. He has been driving it daily for a year after this repair and no issues. Thank goodness!
My 2016 F-150 lost its water pump on Monday. It shed the bearings and all the antifreeze drained out while driving towing a trailer at 70mph. It threw the belt as the shaft completely wobbles. What a POS design!

My 2014 with 200K miles had the exact same thing happen. the water pump I removed looks just like yours.
Good video, Pete.
Thanks buddy!
I have a 2015 5.0 with 300k miles , still no water pump issues but want to change the y” pipe because I heard that goes , still no leaks
My best comment wny is it not electric now
Hey pete my tahoe got a code P0442? When i start it i hear a light tick but its not coming from inside the engine
What part did you use? Thank you
I used a Murray water pump from my local Oreilly’s.
And why does Coyote look like Frankenstein .
My 2015 f150 5.0 has a tapping noise from the somewhere in the front. Did your water pump make a tapping noise coning from it? 81,000 miles
What did you spray on the pulleys to clean off the coolant?
Brake cleaner. I use it to clean everything.
Pete, what did you spray on the pulleys?
Just brake cleaner. I don’t like to put anything on a belt or pulleys. Things like belt dressing are just band aid fixes for an actual problem.
@@PetesGarageandperformance thank you!

Mine just did this today - luckily no trailer attached!
