Do the threads on the water pump need to be locktited in ? I just did this service for the first time.. car is still running so fingers crossed everything is all good, thanks for the video
The official Toyota engine repair manual says every 100,000kms. If you've changed it prior to that, then you'll need to pop the grommet out of the dash, turn the ignition on, start the cruiser and reset the timing belt counter.
This is why I have a big disclaimer on this video and on my guide over on my official website. If you get it wrong, your pistons will kiss your valves and the damage is done. Won't be a cheap fix either at the point. If you're not confident, please take it to a qualified mechanic. 🤠👌

Hey Dean
I'm glad you've found the video helpful. 🤠
No they don't need to be threadlockef in, just torqued to spec. 👌
My 96 1hdt timing belt light just came on at 200k. Do I have to change it every 100k?
Pretty sure it's every 100k, I'll check the books and get back to you on it.

@@OzTrax4X4 cheers. I imported her from Japan with 178000kms. I best change it as I'm sure they probably did it at 100k in Japan.
@matthewjames4268 definitely worth doing it if you're don't exactly know the history. 🤠👌
@@OzTrax4X4 There may be a sticker if I recall with the mileage date. I'll double check.
Hey mate I need to do it I have never done it before I’m so scared I’m going to stuff up the timing

@@OzTrax4X4is it hard to line up the timing?
Not at all, it's a single camshaft.
Nice one Mick
Good job 👍
