Great video. One add though which I figured out is very important. The pulley on the crank is a harmonic balancer. It is two pieces with a rubber ring in the middle. It would have been really good info to know before. I used a standard puller even though you identified to purchase one for this job. Didn't work out so well.
Sorry that happened to you. at 4:56 the box sticker it says Harmonic Balancer Puller. Hopefully this will save someone from the same mistake. Thank you for the information.
Awesome vid, can't imagine how many other guys this job goes twice as fast for after having gotten to watch someone else do it first. Good idea on removing the puller arm pins to assemble in place
Thank you so much for this, this is a fantastic video! I have to replace the water pump in a 2006 today and I wasn't sure how involved it was. Gonna have to go back to the store to pick up a timing belt.
@@hyr0llr everything turned out great! Took me way less time after watching your video! I lost a mark on my timing belt when I pulled the water pump but eventually got everything back together in the right place. Car is driving great now, and just in time for winter!
@@amariilu6516 are you talking about the timing or the serpentine belt. I havent seen a timing belt ridges go smooth before lol unless your saying some ridges broke off.
Nice job. Very informative. I’ve done many belts before in various vehicles. Just picked up this vehicle with no knowledge of age of timing belt. Will be doing this soon. Thanks for the instructional video.
I noticed when you removed the waterpump it was just water that drained out. No Coolant that I could see. I have just finished my 3.5 at 160,000 Kilometres (100,000 Miles) and my waterpump was just like it came out of the factory. Needless to say I just bought new red coolant as per spec to fill it after the rebuild.
if you have that vaccum coolant system setup for sure, ive never had good experience with it, funnel bleed has always been my go to bleeding of coolant.
How many hours did it take? My 2006 300 is at 91,500 miles and I'm sure ima have to do the 100,000 service. What should I take care of while I'm in there? Water pump, belt, tensioner, what else would be a good idea to take care of while I'm in there? Thanks in advance.
Dont remember off the top of my head but probably 6 hours or so. And its been awhile since i did it so im not sure how much more in depth it would be to do the front main seal. But it would be behind that front sprocket.
I just bought an 06 300 with almost 123,000 miles on it. It was owned by an elderly lady and I've had it for about a week. Haven't noticed any problems with it. Would you recommend me changing both now with how many miles is on the car? I haven't noticed any problems with the car. Thank you
people will say do it at the service manual recommended milage. others would say 100k miles and others would say take the cover off and look at the condition of the belt. i have no loyalty to either time interval so i cant say what you should do. If you feel like you can knock this job out relatively easy , then no problem getting it done. So that way its preventative maintenance.
Bro..your video its ecxelent... I have the samecar..today I change the water pump ...but have problem with the aligment ...when put the belt tensor one pully misalingned 2dents Put all the marks at right place ...but go out 2 dents again.. Any advice on how to do 🤔???
so when i did it. i aligned the top two sprockets. you can shove cardboard or something similar to keep them in place. and then you can rotate the crank a little bit to line it up when you loosen the tensioner.
Hey I changed my water pump based on your video and now it just cranks but won’t start. Any idea of the problem maybe a sensor? Only problem was overheating
@@hyr0llr I was able to put the left side exactly in the right spot but the right side is off. Somebody else mentioned it before. I don’t remember bumping it though. Tried to crank but won’t start
good job but you have a valve clacking there's more problems down the road for that 300 would have addressed that first before that water pump replacement i don't like come backs at my shop they will claim it did not have that sound before they brought to you.
I have the same car doing the water pump and timing replacement had the cams lined up but I accidentally bumped into the right cam and it moved 90 degrees to the right now it won’t line up again like it was before what can I do now?
7:03 what is that light green sensor called? Mine is covered in a thick oil kind of grime and my oil light keeps popping on because it keeps leaking once it gets warmed up
Hey does anyone know what that yellow/green sensor plug is on this video? My car isn’t running and that plug is unplugged. I can’t figure out how to plug it back in
Hey bud, I’ve got a mechanic changed the water pump, timing belt and tensioner. After repair, my 300 vibrates more than before. I can feel the vibration is pretty bad when accelerating in the 3rd gear (RPM 1500-2000, 50-70KPH). I took my 300 back to the mechanic, they said it’s the transmission problem and wanted me to change the entire transmission. Any clues with the vibration? Could changing the timing belt cause that vibration? Looking forward for your reply. Many thanks
@@hyr0llr Thank you. It’s right after they changed it. One last question, let’s say the vibration is level 1 before this repair. After repair, it changed to level 2 in gears other than the 3rd gear. In 3rd gear, I feel the level is 5. The myth to me is why 3rd gear gets the most vibration if this issue relates to timing, instead of transmission? I could not figure out an answer and failed to argue with the mechanic last time.
@@vectorhehe7905 if it happens in 3rd gear more violently, i guess its possible that the timing could amplify it more. Was the timing bel/WP replaced becuase of the vibration? Or was there another issue other than the vibration.
@@hyr0llr so the water pump leaked and the car was towed to that mechanic shop in P gear (red flag to me but the mechanic said it’s ok). The mechanic said my car has 190K KMs on it and recommended changing following items along with the water pump: GASKET, timing belt, belt tensioner and coolant. And I changed what he recommended :(
well, hoping that the psitons didnt hit the valves then its gonna be a done motor. you would need to make sure cyl 1 is at top dead center. then make sure the camshaft sprockets match like in the video.
@@mtsanchez27 pull the number 1 spark plug put a long extension or screwdriver in and rotate the crankshaft bolt till the screwdriver comes up and the dot on the crankshaft lines up with the TDC mark.
yeah i been wanting a battery ratchet for sure lol just havent fully commited to getting one yet. i do have power impacts but i do most of the videos by hand just to give people comfort that it is possible by hand tools lol
cant remember specifically, i believe i just used a breaker bar and did a hard yank on it. i probably would have included if i used something else to help break the torque. But like i said. i dont remember for sure. sorry.
I got this problem with my 07 Chrysler 300 an I can't find anyone that want to work on it so I got to do it myself u got any advice your video helps alot that so thanks
@@scotttsosie8341 your welcome. and the video pretty much explains it. the oonly thing ill add (i dont remember if the video says) but fold some cardboard and stuff it on the new belt when you align it to hold both sides and you might have to rotate the crank a little bit to get the final dot to line up with the correct amount of teeth.
and i believe i sayed in the video, just count the teeth between dots multiple time to ensure your putting the same amount of teeth from the old belt to the new one.

With respect there is not a harmonic balancer out there that don’t have the rubber between it that I know of. Maybe a fluid dampner

@@hyr0llr last question the if the ridges of the timing belt have came off making it a smooth surface is that considered broken as well?
@@amariilu6516 they usually go by book time so if it says a chunk of hours at their rate. Price shoots up.

Do you have the Torque specs for water pump

if you have that vaccum coolant system setup for sure, ive never had good experience with it, funnel bleed has always been my go to bleeding of coolant.
You a bad bad man sir thank you
Great informative video, except how did get the harmonic balancer back on, I am guessing tapping with a dead blow hammer?
Just placed it on and pulled it in with the bolt. I dont know why i didnt record it. Maybe to save on video length. Im not sure
Can I do this the same way for a 2008 Chrysler 300 2.7L v6 right
i honestly cant give you a right answer.

@@Jay-il4ffhow did it go? About to do this job
My car just went off, is it the timing belt or timing chain? Was running fine and timing chain last forever?
These cars have timing belts. As far as ehat caused it to turn off, youll have to have it diagnosed. What makes you think the timing belt went out?
good job but you have a valve clacking there's more problems down the road for that 300 would have addressed that first before that water pump replacement i don't like come backs at my shop they will claim it did not have that sound before they brought to you.
Crank pulley broke! Only 2 remaining inner shoulders to hold onto, what’re my options? Been using heat with no avail
the crank pully tool? or the crank pulley itself?
How’d you loosen and tighten the harmonic balancer bolt?
Sudden torque to break it loose.
So I don’t have to replace the whole engine?
#Chrysler300Base2.7L
How much coolant does the car need?
grab a couple gallons to be safe.
I have the same car doing the water pump and timing replacement had the cams lined up but I accidentally bumped into the right cam and it moved 90 degrees to the right now it won’t line up again like it was before what can I do now?
How did you fix it?
7:03 what is that light green sensor called? Mine is covered in a thick oil kind of grime and my oil light keeps popping on because it keeps leaking once it gets warmed up
That is the oil sensor is very easy to replace just look for a video
would a 99 Prowler be the same
I have no experience with a prowler, but what i just seen online, its the same motor.
What year
i dont remember, sorry
4:50 how’d you take the bolt out so easy bro when I try taking mine off the belt gos back and the timing is off
Try sudden snaps on the ratchet to pop the tension loosr on the bolt. Or worse case hold one of the cams with a wrench
Thanks man I appreciate you ! That worked out for me I used a wrench to hold one of the cams 😎
@@YungJesusOfficial glad it worked out lol
I need help how do u line up the timing teeth with no gun? Please help ty
What gun are you refering to?
Hey bud, how many valleys do you have from the left cam pulley mark to right cam pulley mark ? and then from right cam Mark to crankshaft Mark
(The belt was already broken prior to repair)
i dont remember off the top of my head honestly. sorry.
