- Ford Escape And Ford Fusion 3.0L Water Pump Replacement. This one is a 2008.
You have to remove the pully that drives the water pump that is pressed on to the rear of one of the cams. The special puller is $200.00 but you can do it with a regular puller. Then I used a power steering pump pulley installer to put pulley back on. Other years they made different and you do not have to remove the pully but on this one you do! The Matco puller I used is a MST4534 multipurpose bearing and puller. The Power steering pulley installer is a MAC PSPSET.
This video was made as a demonstration on how to repair things and should not be done with out the proper training and safety equipment. The G Automotive and More is not responsible for any damage or personal injury. Please if you don't have the ability to do these demonstrations, don't try and get a professional to do it for you.
What puller did you use? if you have a model/stock number I would appreciate it.
It’s a Matco MST4534 puller. Thanks for watching
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore I am sorry you responded to my question. If I would have scrolled down I would have seen it! Thank you for the consistent puller model numbers!
If I knew what I was doing.I wouldn't be watching this video.Thanks for the video
Best video yet !!! 👍here’s a tip I saw on another video , when putting the belt back on use zip ties rather then a pry bar it works like a hot knife through butter ! Awesome job sir thank you 👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦
Instead of a screw driver I used a zip tie to the pulley it worked great didn’t lose any fingers lol thanks for the video!
I agree that using a zip tie to hold the belt while cranking is the best method. It works great and keeps your hands free from danger.
I just had the water pump failure after 14 years of operation. I appreciate the explanation of the need to remove the pulley from the cam to access the water pump bolts. The explanation was right on what my mechanic said, so thanks for adding credibility to the problem and it validated the mechanics concern.
Had mines after 17
Excellent video. I have all kinds of pullers and sure didn't want to buy another. FYI if you heat the pulley up on a hot plate to 350 for about 15 minutes it falls on, you don't need the pulley installer. (you do need a puller to remove, heating the pulley up while installed will just heat the cam up also and they will both expand).
What is that pulley for?
@@Secr3tYT that pulley turns the belt that turns the water pump
Great video, had to get pulley off to fix an oil leak. I used a small 3 jaw HF puller and a little heat (not too much). Put it back on with a little heat, large socket and a hammer. Good to go. Thank you
Thanks for watching
No wonder I was quoted $600+ by two different shops for this procedure!What a pain in the ass!Great video,thanks for all the details!
More Involved that you think. Thanks for watching
same quote for me. They claim the pump is 300$ but I cant find it for more than 108$. I think they hate the fix and throw 250$ on to the bill.
this one easy pissy you should see where then new 3.5L engine water pump location it's inside the engine a 12-14 hours job to replace
be happy, didn't need an alternator. add 700.
@@brandonblack2095 That's exactly the reason I would not consider buying a Ford product with the 3.5L engine... Only the 3.0, 3.7 are the safer and easier to fix water pump designs...
Very helpful and informative video. I have an 08 3 liter which I am planning to change the water pump on and feel confident after watching your video.
Thanks for watching. You might want to watch this video also th-cam.com/video/3tCQEqfRLmI/w-d-xo.html Tip on refilling the coolant.
Getting ready to do one nice to see someone do it before me thanks for the information.
This belt can be easily installed with a zip-tie. Just wrap the belt around the bottom pulley and as far around the top pulley as possible. Then tip-tie the top pulley and belt together through the spoke of the pulley as far as possible. Bump the engine. The belt wraps the top pulley and the zip-tie gets cut at the same time. My new belt actually came with a zip-tie.
I do use a zip tie now. Thanks for watching
Well put together video, just the info thats needed. I'll be doing this job soon and thought I'd watch a video to see if theres any surprises. And this is why I look, thanks for the heads up and great job on the video!
Thank you, I try to do short and to the point videos.
I know the feeling, I have a channel where I do automotive as well. Sometimes its not easy keeping it short and simple.
I loved your video and very well explained 👍 thank you 👌
ya Just saved my Bacon on my Daughters ride...THANK YOU !!
Thank you for this video, I plan to attempt this in the morning.😊
Awesome how to video. Thanks for sharing and keep it up.
Thanks for watching
Very detailed and informative video!
This video was great. Thanks for the info
Great video. I just dont understand which video I watched before this one that used no special tools. Maybe it was the 4 cylinder? Or the ghost 3.5 litre that shows up on some parts catalogs. OEM tools harmonic balancer and the shop pulley installer for the win.
Very nicely done!
Getting ready to attempt this tomorrow night...
I guess I'm not smart enough to get the pulley back on all the way.. i post poned doing it a couple days.. then found hoses to replace also. I actually broke my pulley installer off inside my cam. Luckily I was able to get the bolt back out of the cam.
Your good at this!
Thanks for the info 🎉
Just use 2 or 3 zip ties to hold the belt in place then start the car. Way less dangerous. Can do it with one person.
Good tip. Thanks for watching
Sorry, Could you explain the way do you used the ties please?
@@panzagrande80 Put one end on all the way at the bottom then put the other end as much as you can get on the top wheel and hold it there with zip ties. When you start the car the wheel will turn and automatically finish putting the belt on for you. If you ever put a chain on a bicycle its the same idea. Maybe do a search how to easily put a chain on a bicycle to give you an idea. Btw the zip ties should be place around 3 inches apart. Two zip ties should do the trick.
@@panzagrande80 Also when you try to fit it on the top you must put on at the same direction that the wheel will turn when you start the car. This is a very important part.
@@ralpherromulus6427 thanks
Nice video! What brand of water pump is that, it looks pretty beefy compared to the Factory OEM? Also, what was the cost of the pump?
It was too long ago to remember all that stuff, sorry. Thanks for watching
use a zip tie to hold the belt onto the pully before you spin it instead of a screwdriver. Zip tie will break off.
Absolutely ridiculous.... undoubtedly 10s of thousands of hours of engineers designing this engine.... and they intentionally made it so you have to pull the camshaft pulley to service the water pump?... the top two bolts won't clear the camshaft pulley by 3/8 of a inch??? Would like to say bad engineering.... but it's intentional.... turns 2 hour's of labor into 5 hour's of labor.
Use a zip tie. Not a pry bar.
Takes one person. Its what Ford says to do.
Bump start it. Do not let it run! Dooo not let it run!!
that worked for me.
Great video! Wish I would have found it sooner. The water pump locked up on my wife’s 05 3.0 Escape and snapped the belt. It started to overheat so realized something was wrong. Changed the water pump and thermostat myself with a new belt. I added some oem coolant back in but after running for 10-15 min it starts to get hot. I checked both fans are running and the upper and lower hoses from radiator to thermostat are warm. And the a/c isn’t blowing cold when it warms up. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
These cars are very hard to get coolant full. I would let car cool down completely, pull the upper hose and fill the engine and radiator up. Then start car to see if ok. Thanks for watching
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore THIS reply from the creator was what saved me. I was fans, radiator, and thermostat deep in my '05 3.0 and overlooked simple things like filling the radiator through the hose.
Took me awhile to add coolant. It took a lot of burping
Thanks very professional video.
Thank you my son did camera work. Thanks for watching
I installed a brand new water pump. What would cause it to not spin? The engine turns over fine.
I know this sounds stupid but did you put the belt on right?
@The G Automotive And More the belt is on fine. It even seemed a little slack so I thought that that was the issue. So I removed the entire belt and tried turning the pulley for the water pump by hand and I couldn't. I removed the water pump again and it turns fine but when I tighten down the bolts even finger tight the pulley gets tight again. I can even hear a grinding sound.
@@dezzyblessed767 Wrong pump? Its got to be hitting the head.
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore yea, I figured. The outer housing and bolt holes are the same as the old one but I suspect the impellers are different sizes. I don't have the old one anymore for reference
Very nice well done job with the video thank you so much
The thread in the end of the camshaft is M8 1.25.
Very important for those making their own tools
Great job!
In the fusion you can just remove the air box to get to the pump
Awesome video, thanks for doing it!
Thanks for watching
he right i always have issues with air in the system. its aprocess to get full with no air lock
How did you remove the belt?
The belt on this car was broken because the water pump was locked up. If you are replaceing the water pump you should replace the belt. So either jump it off or cut it.
It's a wonderfull video for me. excelent.
Thank you
Very great job
Great job thanks
Do you recall what thread pitch that you used for the pulley installer? I just rented one from Napa and it’s not wanting to thread in.... thank you in advance
This on was 8mm x1.25 but yours could be different. Thanks for watching
Great video. Im being told my 08 milan premier v6 3.0Liter will require the valve cover to be removed and a locking pin used to keep the crank from moving after moving it to position 1. All this other stuff.
Seriously?
Its a 2008 mazda, not really any difference from the duratech at all other than a better head gasket but exremely thin wiring harnesses that have all sense melted and burned out.
I just replaced them all and the head lights too (40amps, but why?, no wonder they melted over time), and replaced the alternator (those leaky little valve covers!), i have the pump the heater hose and all, my pump is leaking from the weep hole being that the T-joint on the heater hose assembly crumbled up and pieces of plastic got in there. Im hoping to do just what you did. I dnt see why i would need to lock in position 1.
Am I getting rupped off? The dealership wants almost 700 to do this.
I can change it just fine like you did at home.
Please let me know because I have the same exact pump as you do and I cant see any reason why I would need to have my pump timed with the crank
Yes the 2008 3.0L Milan is the same as in the video. But the 3.5L engine the water pump is driven by the timing chain and you have to pin the cams and take the chain off. Probably have to remove engine to do it on the 3.5L. Thanks for watching.
You could just loop the belt to the water pump and to the pulley slightly tap it on to the cam. Then use the pulley installer to push the pulley onto the cam I did this the other night it worked fine. Trying to stick a screw driver and have someone start it to loop the belt on is just not smart do not do that. Just loop it to the pump then to the pulley. And barely tap it so it sticks to the cam. Then use the installer to press it back on belt is already looped
Yes you could do that. Thanks for watching
These engines are NOT designed with maintenance in mind. That is not an engineers job , their job is to design an engine to a certain spec to work with X number of platforms and within Y cost .
They should be engineered to do maintenance also.
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore cCant have it both ways. Engineering is a compromise between Max, Min and cost.
@@wilinstonthompson1352 Then why did they redesign it in the later models to make it easier?
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore Did Ford Engineering say it was redesigned to make it easier ? There are several motors in the ford line up that obviously were not designed for maintenance in mind yet they redesigned this one to be ?
@@wilinstonthompson1352 Well they change something because the later ones are different
It’s a Matco MST4534 puller that I used on it. Thanks for watching everybody.
What is the name and model number of the special puller that runs $200?
You need all 3 tools. Ford part numbers 303-456, 303-456, and 303-457. They come out to me more that $200. I was wrong on the price.
Ah cool, so I don't need the "special" puller but instead I need a Matco puller AND a MAC power steering pulley installer?!? Geesh!
Most people won't have these tools, sorry. Thanks for watching
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!!
1. What is the name of the original pully part you need to remove a water pump on a 2006 ford fusion 3.0 ?
2. As well as what is the tools being used in this video??
Having trouble finding anything to remove my water pump...😢😢😢
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME
I tried using 3 diffrent pulley removers and none of them worked so what i did was put a piece of 2x4 behind the pulley and beat it off with a small sledge hammer worked like a charm.. Just hit it evenly dont go crazy because you might damage the pulley but saves you time and labor..
@@robgautomotive ditto
Soft wood, hard mallet, even taps, went back on same way
@@robgautomotive I'm having the issue with all these pullers too.
So how do you change the bearing that allows the pulley to spin? It’s set inside the wall of the engine… mines starting to go bad
The pully it pressed on to the camshaft.
Yeah thanks bud I figured that part out but it seemed to be making a crunching pitch squeal bearing noise that was closer to the engine. I thought the oil seal was a bearing like a dummy. So I gotta look maybe it’s the water pump below ir
@@benjaminbaumgart7978 Take the belt off and see if noise goes away.
At 3:05 is that bolted on tube thats facing the front of the car have the thermostat in it? Im not sure where its at. Thanks
I think so. Look here at the Four Season 86115.

What happens if it doesnt come out as one piece....? (Pulley instillation tool removal)
You will have to buy a new pully. Probably not made anymore.
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore i fit a deepwell over it and just, ratcheted it out! :)
Haha most of them didnt fit i was panicking.
Used this video as reference and the tool for the pulley is only $65 now though
do you have a link for that tool?
Do you have the part number
Nice video, I'm having troubles to install the belt for my Ford fusion 2012. Could you please show me the belt specifications? Thanks in advance.
You have to jump the water pump belt on., It is explained near the end of the video.
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore Hi. Great video! Instead of turning the car over via the ignition, can you tell me how to access the crank to spin it by hand a bit? I see some replacement parts (Gates) tell me to zip tie the belt to the cam pulley then manually turn the crank. But I'm having trouble seeing where to spin the crank at. Thanks.
The 12 Fusion Milan is a different set up. Pump is directly into the block.
@@threeboysgarage The crank pully is on the passenger side front wheel. You might have to remove wheel and the plastic cover to access the crank bolt. Thanks for watching
Great Video. I have a 2007 Ford Fusion V6. Do you know if that pully will come off the same way? and if so. Can you tell me the part# of that Matco Puller or what kind it is and can you rent it or do you have to buy it
Yes the 3.0 Fusion is the same way. The Matco puller I used is a MST4534 multipurpose bearing and puller. The Power steering pully installer is a MAC PSPSET. Thanks for watching
Same problem.i mean same engine.
Clean those leaves out of the cowl.
This just shows you that people never look under there hoods and clean them out. Thanks for watching
What is the pulley called just in case i damage it
Water pump drive pully.
Is it possible to use a power steering pulley remover to remove the pulley like what you used to install the pulley?
No, they didn't put the piece on the pulley that the power steering puller grabs on to.Thanks for watching
I know Ford escape and fushion 2.0 water pump in China are provided by Chongqing Feilong Jiangli. Would you please share the supplier of 3.0 water pump of ford escape and fushion?
So can u not get the housing pump off with out removing the cam pulley?
Correct, must pull cam pully to get the the bolts.
that looks like you can rebuild it
Rebuild the pump? Probably could not find the parts to do it. New one are cheap
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore interesting I typed it on Google eBay and Amazon have the kit for under or about 30$. the reason I commented on this is that there are A LOT of hoses you have to disturb and can probably not seat one right or have to replace some. so I just did that to mine I have 3 of them 2 limited all-wheel drive and 1 poor model front wheel all v6 and range from 08 09 10. all mechanical parts match with the exception of the trim and options 2 are loaded 1 is the poor version
@@stinkmeaner9798 Its better the change the whole pump with the back housing because there is a plastic coolant outlet on it that might be brittle and break at a latter time. Better to do the job once that twice. Spend a little more money and replace the whole water pump assembly. Thanks for watching
any idea what the thread pitch would be to get the pulley back on again with the right tool. I just need to know what thread pitch it is.
M8x1.25.
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore hey thank you for the well put together video. I need to replace the water pump now and just what I needed thank you again.
Is there any possible damage to the engine if the pulley was bend and reinstalled it?
It could wear the belt out faster and sense the pully is now out of balance it could wear the camshaft bearings out. I would get a replacement. Thanks for watching
Did anyone else have an issue of 2nd to 3rd gear jumping after doing this install?
Thanks
No but the top of the transmission is right there maybe you routed a hose wrong. That is what I would look at first.
buen video no hablo ingles pero la band serpentine how la pones gracias?

You should replace cam seal ...
I was there to fix the overheating. Cam seal did not look like it was leaking.
Just battery to remove water pump
Some of the Bolts are behind the pulley.
I have a 2007 ford fusion 3.0 v6 is this the same engine? Because my back housing connection broke off & now I have to change the whole the water pump and back housing because of that. If anyone could help thank you
I am not sure the engines did change in them.
Can you tell me how you knew the pump was bad? My 06 Escape has no heat. Heater core was flushed. one heat core hose is warm (not hot) the other is cold. Temp gauge reads normal, fans kick on and off normal. I am thinking the fins are warn or not spinning in the pump. Ideas?
This water pump was locked up. It is possable that the water pump is bad. Have you put a thermostat in yet? Not sure on this model but sometimes it is a Two stage thermostat, might not be putting water flow to heater core. Does this car have a heater control valve? need to check this also.
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore I do not believe this has a heater control valve. The interior flap door is mechanical and it is moving correctly. The floor to defrost actuator is moving correctly with vacuum. I installed a new Motorcraft thermostat, no change.
Then I borrowed a NAPA flushing tool from my mechanic. It combined air and water to pulse water pressure through the heater core. The heat came back to a limited level. When I blower the fan across it at high, it is not as hot, it has better heat at low setting.
It looks as if I will be replacing my heater core on this thing. I might as well put in a radiator or have it and the hoses flushed at the same time as I do not want that sediment crud going back into a new heater core. New upper and lower hoses are probably in order as well.
Regarding the water pump. It works quite well as the fluid flows very well through the bottle when revving the engine.
@@BenjaminHansen Well I would have to think you are right, the heater core is clogged up
Wouldn't think you would have much flow if heater core was plugged or restricted.
@@stevegriffith7236 I replaced the heater core. There was still good flow through the clogged one, but I believe it was bypass flow. Works well after a new core install.
What is the pulley actually called? Cam shaft pully?
I don't know. Water pump cam pully?
I'm about to do this on my brothers car. want to come help me? lol thanks I'll have to label everything. video is great..
I know you should be able to do it. Thanks for watching.
You don't have to take the pulley off to remove the waterpump. You can order the pump separately and don't have to remove the housing. I did all that myself on 2010 Escape
On this year you do, they changed it on the later years.
This is the 2008 v6. On this one you do.
Hello guys what size of bolt u used to lose the pulley
To get the pully back on is a M8x1.25
Does anyone know what the tool is called to get the pulley off?
It’s a 2 jaw puller.
What kind of pulley is that?
The puller is a Matco tools one
What size bolt the water pump
Sorry I don't remember. Thanks for watching
Is this the same configuration for the 2007 Ford escape?
Yes it is. Thanks you watching
Not for my 2006 Ford Escape Limited 3.0L. The camshaft pulley doesn't cover any bolts of the water pump. The uppermost bolts of the pump are about 2 inches lower than the pulley's lowest edge. This model is manufactured in Kansas City. I was about to look online for a tool to remove the pulley until I checked to make sure and I'm glad I don't have to go through this. It's a good video thought and I still learned quite a bit and I subscribed. The question is aren't all 3L Duratec engines identical? Or the engines are identical, but, surrounding parts can vary?
Where can I get a pulley like that
This was a Matco puller but Harbor freight has puller also. Thanks for watching
Do you know what the thread is inside the cam someone bothered the threads I need to clean them please help
The one on this car was 8mm X 1.25. Thanks for watching
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore your video has the information that I was looking for, great, one doubt if you can help me, the 8 mm are refered to the head of the screw and the 1.25 is about the grossor of the screw to put it back? Thanks for advanced.

Sorry buddy but u don’t have to remove that partvjuj
Yes you do. This year you have to.
i did this without pulling the pulleys
You must have a different year. They changed it later on where you don't need to remove the upper pully. Thanks for watching
It is a 2005
I didn't have to remove much just hoses and thermostat housing I'd figured 2005 and 2008 would. be the se they look the same

My car is mazda tribute 2008 with 3l
In my mazda tribute 2008 3L there is no thread in the end of the camshaft, just some kind of cup, about 5mm deep. How can I put the pulley back on?
How did you get it on?@@MrHealthy2013
Can this work for a 2012 Ford fursion?
It looks like it is different. It looks like the pump will come out with out taking the pully off the motor on a 2012 according to my info. But if you need to remove the waterpump housing you will have to remove the pully.
The G Automotive And More thank you
👏👏👏👌👌👍👍
You dont have to take the pulley out
On some models you do. Thanks for watching
Dude your wrong
No I am not. This is the way you do this model. They did change it in the later model where you don’t need to pull the pulley off.
At 2:47 what hose attaches to the bottom piece of that water pump?
There is so many hoses down there I have no idea witch hose you are talking about. Thanks for watching
@@TheGAutomotiveAndMore its the down piece that connects eventually to the heater core in the back
