Coolant Leaking Behind Waterpump 95 mustang v6 leaking coolant behind the new water pump. worse when turned on. does not appear to be the pump or any hoses. Solution: If the leak is behind the water pump , then either the new water pump gasket is leaking or the timing cover from the timing chain that the water pump bolts to is leaking and the gasket between the timing cover and the engine block. A couple of the water pump bolts are actually studs that go through the timing cover to the engine block. When the nuts are loosened, the timing cover also loosens. If the gasket for the timing cover is close to failing, it will start to leak. The reason it doesn't leak much with the engine off it because the water pump is not running and no real pressure is on the system. When the engine is running, the cooling system builds up pressure, usually 16 psi and it will push through a weak gasket. I think it is just in need of a new gasket at 151000 miles. The bolts will ...

Water Pump Leak Repair I have a problem with a water pump leak. I have replaced the original with a new pump, but I still have a leak I suspect around the gasket between the waterpump and the engine block. Any suggestions? I was very careful to clean the surfaces and evenly tighten the six bolts in a rotation first finger tight, then to 11 ft-lb, and finally to 22 ft-lb. Is 22 ft-lb the right final torque or do I need to re-torque after the engine has been through a couple of temperature cycles? Solution: I would check the intake gasket for leaking and running down,looking like its the waterpump, as far as I can tell you are doing everything right ,if need be I would put a pressure tester on the cooling system and pump it to 20 lbs and looking very closely at the intake. all I can suggest is to put a little sealant on the bolts,11ft lbs the first pass and 22 ft lbs final pass is the correct specs.no I wouldnt torque it to 28 ft lbs as you are asking ,.let me ask this...

What is the cost to replace the water pump in a 2002 sebring? The Water Pump sells for around $222 new, and reman for just around $100 or so. (Some reman's are just as good as new, and carry a warranty). The labor time guide calls for 3.4 hours to complete the job. On this vehicle, the water pump is driven by the timing belt, and it's highly recommened that the timing belt be replaced at the same time. If coolant has gotten onto the timing belt, it can harm the belt and effect it's reliability. This is a "better safe than sorry" repair, as if the belt is to break after water pump replacment, you'll have to pay for all this labor all over agian (not to mention the risk of internal engine damage due to the belt breaking!). If you choose to do this, the timing belt sells for around $86 and you will need to add another .5hr to the labor. Labor rates vary from shop to shop. For a job of this type, a "fair" labor rate can be anywhere from $85-$125 pe...

Toyota  rav4 water pump problem what would cause the water pump on a '07 rav4 V6 with 72000 miles to fail. seen others with same problem & we received recall notice for internal oil hose replacement. is this related to water pump problem? and yes, i've had regular maintenance on vehicle. i've driven toyotas since 1979, including 2 rav4's, and most with 175 - 200k before selling/trading and never had a water pump replaced in any of them. does the '07 rav4 V6 have a problem? Solution: The oil line replacement is part of the 90K recall, and has nothing to do with the water pump. They've found that a number of the oil line hoses were failing very prematurely, and making a HUGE oily mess. It is a piece of hose with about a 45 degree bend that is less than 6 inches long.   The water pump unfortunately is not considered powertrain. The engine, transmission, etc are your drive train. The waterpump is considered an accessory, much like a power stee...

The petrol and engine oil are mixing, what could be the cause of this? fuel is mixing whit the oil already change the fuel pump Your problem is going to be an injector(s) or injector O-rings. Fuel can leak out of the solenoid of the injector into the oil, or the injector o-rings can leak into the oil also.  You will need to bypass the fuel filter, add some clean fuel in a bucket, add some fuel/oil dye to the fuel, and run the truck off of the bucket of fuel. Take the return off of the back of the head, and also run this into the same bucket, let it run for a little while off of this fuel, remove the valve cover, jake housings(if equipped) and rocker arms, take a black light, the dye will glow where the fuel is coming from. I would not rule out an injector, I have seen it more than once, but the most common is injector O-rings. You should have 3 o-rings, they should be pretty close to the same size. It is also recommended that you replace the hold-down b...

Transfer case Filler Plug Location 2005 Nissan Murano sl 3.5 front wheel drive. where is the filler plug for transfer case? If it's front wheel drive only and not AWD, you need to add CVT fluid to the transmission. I strongly recommend you get the fluid at the dealer. Transmission fluid is added through the dipstick tube. the "drain plug is 10mm hex key, filler plug is 12mm box wrench".

Nissan Altima OBD code 1605 P1605 NISSAN - Automatic Transmission Communication The 1605 code for your year Altima is either due to a weak battery or a bad AT control unit. Weak battery - Faulty Transmission Control Module (TCM) - Harness is open or shorted between TCM and Engine Control Module (ECM) - Poor circuit electrical connection between TCM and ECM Here is the steps to check the system out yourself. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/105565483/1d.pdf If the transmission seems to function fine,then it is more likely to be either a weak battery or an opened or shorted communication line between the ECM and the A/T control unit? Malfunction is detected when an incorrect signal from Transmission control module (TCM) is sent to Engine Control Module (ECM). I would start by clearing the code and see if it returns. If it does, I would check the battery and the charging system voltage before replacing a control unit or getting crazy about checking wiring. Thi...

coolant over flow  I just filled  coolant over flow area all the way up, Now what to do? Solution: Its ok that you filled it up. If the engine is low it will take some of the antifreeze out of the overflow as needed. You may see some on the ground because when the engine cools it can put it back into the overflow. You aren't going to damage anything by doing this. If it still concerns you, you can adjust the level by using a turkey baster to pull some of the extra out of the overflow. Coolant Temperature Sensor Operation: This sensor monitors the temperature of the engine and sends that information to the engine control computer to regulate the amount of fuel needed. More fuel is needed if the engine is cold; less if it's hot. If the temperature is extreme, the signal will be sent to the temperature gauge as a visual indicator of overheating and imminent danger. Inspect the sensor's wires and connections. ECT (engine coolant temperature) sensor ...

Speedometer And Odometer Not Working my 2004 Nissan maxima 3.5 SE speedometer and odometer stopping working...Every thing else on the cluster still works  I went to auto zone and there scanner tool said P1574 Solution for this problem: This is your Vehicle speed sensor , with both not working to tells me the speedometer ? cluster is okay . The code also indicated the VSS . Replace the sensor and it will start to work again / Which one of the trans speed sensors did you replace . Okay there are three sensors output input and vehicle speed sensor . Was this the one replaced if not replace this sensor .  this is back near the engine ,looks like you replaced the turbine speed sensor . The one you need to replace is the sensor marked with a red oval ring

Auto lock system / alarm going off, car wont start Nissan 02 altima Its the factory auto door lock & alarm system,when I use the key chain lock/unlock its stooped working so when I use the key to open the door, the alarm go's off. I somehow got the horn to stop but now it won't start at all I think that the car's computer has shut down the stater as It's anit-theft mec. The vehicle wiil not start ! The alarm was activated, And I tried to turn it off by starting the vehicle, and now it won't start ! Nissan did not come out with auto lock till 2010. So if your doors auto lock, then the after market alarm is keeping the truck from starting. Try this solution:---- Lets first do this and set the alarm and turn it off to make sure that isn't what is causing your problem. Do not use the remote, use the key. Open the drivers window. Lock all the doors from the out side using the key at the drivers door. The security light should turn solid for abou...

car lose power while driving uphills If the engine is running on all cylinders, runs fairly good overall but loses power on inclines or hills. I really have to lean to a possible blocked cat converter or one becoming blocked. The " honeycomb" material inside will break down over time and when it does, its causes a partial blockage, engine cant breathe and normally noticed under load lik up a hill but in most cases run ok otherwise. There is a tool to check back-pressure on each side of the cat converter to confirm but without one, I can only lean to one becoming blocked. In your case one would have to remove the cat, road test and if ok, then replace the converter. Due to age and miles, this is very possible the problem. they do degrade over time. Another possibility bad gas can cause this, Most vehicles are hard to rid of old gas but I am fairly sure yours has a drain plug on the fuel tank. I would drain it, add good gas, maybe an additive and run it for a bit. It ...

CRV hood release cable is broken, How do you reconnect the top of the hood release cable when the hood wont open You can see the cable if you pull on the hood as far as it will go 2002 CRV hood release cable is broken, or disconnected at the latch end How can I open the hood If it's loose it either broke at the cable or the end piece. You have to get to the back of the latch and move the release arm. I usually try and get under the vehicle and remove the plastic splash shield from the bottom and get a long screwdriver or something I can fish up from the bottom to that arm to "pop" it open. Here's a couple pictures showing the release arm and latch so you can see where they are located. The release arm (marked B) will release the primary latch. Then you can release the second safety latch like normal. That arm needs to come down . I have this extra long radiator hose pick that's angled just right to grab it and then I pull down to pop it.  in t...

Honda crv whining noise while driving Honda CRV is making a loud whining noise when I am driving, but the sound stops immediately when I step on the brake. What is it? Normally this is caused by worn out brake pads, the wear sensor is contacting the brake rotor and causing the squeal that you are hearing. The squeal will stop when you apply the brakes. I would suggest having you brakes checked. Screeching/Whine from engine Sounds like the serpentine belt is squealing, possible bad pulley or belt tensioner, should take off the belt and inspect all the pulleys and replace as necessary, with a new belt. CRV whining noise like hydraulic pump or air conditioner. Ok the noise is under the hood not inside the vehicle correct ? Ok then it's one of two issues. The serpentine belt tensioner is starting to fail. What happens is the bearing overtime in the tensioner starts to fail and causes this issue . When the a/c is on there's more stress on the tensioner that...
