As mentioned in the video, down below you will find some Amazon links to products used or referenced in the video as well as articles and videos that may also be helpful. This video is geared towards the newer home-mechanic. I’ll cover lots of basic stuff including a bunch of tips and tricks I’ve gained from working on these old Toyota’s for many years. It’ll probably take you longer to watch this video than change the water pump, but at least you’ll have a good idea what you’re doing after watching it.
*Update about cooling capacities* The capacities listed in the video are approximate. Exact measurements per model year vary. They also vary between automatic and manual transmission equipped vehicles. Add coolant as necessary to fill your specific system’s requirements.

Can you drive a 1990 toyota without the steering belt..
I was losing water from both weep holes so i put on a new pump. I am having to use my 4 old fan studs as Pep Boys did Not supply them. Used a thin vice grip to remove the studs.
What torque wrench did you use here?
Quick question, I used the high tack on my timing cover gaskets and unfortunately after everything was put back together, I have a leak on the bottom left of the cover where it meets the block. Do you think I would have been better off using ultra grey instead of the high tack? I applied it the same way you did in your video, but I might have skimped out a bit on the cover, not applying a thick enough coat of it. Any help would be appreciated! I'm going to take it all apart and redo it again, and I'd like to get it right this time lol
Excellent video, thanks!
Could I use the high tack sealant with a gasket for the oil pan? Or would you recommend just using the black fipg? Great video by the way, very helpful!!
Great video and detail, thanks a lot
Love your vids. Rebuilding my whole motor now. So all your vids are key. Thanks
my 1991 hilux take about 9.8l of coolant
Wow Pete .. Amazing video … I have been a mechanic for 40 years and YOU have thought of EVERYTHING …. I sent this to a friend on how to do it as I am not close enough to guide him through it or do it for him. Thanks for a GREAT VIDEO
Around 25 minutes you talk about coolant hitting the ground. I have been having fuse issues lately, and while looking under the hood I noticed a coolant leak and the reservoir being low/that possibly that knock you were talking about at the beginning of the video. Is it possible the coolant is messing with the ground, causing fuses to pop? Thanks!
Wow Pete! Great quality videos. Still miss the classic yellow that truck was. Or even the Bright yellow it was the second time.
Excellent video. Thank you
Great video. What torque wrench are you using?
