2014 FORD FOCUS 2.0 Water Pump Replacement

[michaelenos]

Very handy video, I changed the thermostat and water pump on my 2014 tonight. I got lucky and didn't have to remove the motor mount. Also I removed the passengers headlight which for me made getting my hands and tools to operate alot better.

Great video ! Being a mechanic. I still find so many good video of tricks and other ways that make the job so much easy on youtube !

Awesome video man, I came to see what I was in for before I do the water pump on my dad's Focus, but I actually watched the whole thing because you showed the whole job start to finish and gave some tips as well. Thanks, hopefully this goes smoothly!

Great video. I changed the pump on my 2013 Focus. I had enough space to get the pulley off and the pump out without lowering the motor. It was a fairly straightforward job and this video gave me the confidence to get stuck into it. Thanks.

I used this video to change the belt on my 2013 Ford Transit Connect with the 2.0 Duratec engine... all very similar if not identical. I had a problem getting the serpentine belt tensioner tool and 13mm socket on the tensioner bolt. Instead of altering the tool that I had borrowed from a friend, I bought another identical tensioner bar at Harbor Freight, then I used a screwdriver to remove the rubber grip so I could cut about 2 inches off the handle, this gave me more room to move the bar as the end was hitting a portion of the frame on setup and a hose or two toward the radiator. I still struggled to get the belt on, and finally realized by just getting about 15 more degrees of travel wity the bar, the belt went on easily. So if it won't go on, you just haven't turned the 13mm bolt enough. I went to 3 auto parts stores trying to get a 3/8" drive 13mm 12-point individual socket (just the one, not a set) hard to find the 12 point version in a short socket. The reason having one may help is because it will give you a few more degrees to get the tensioner bar all the way back for more travel when detensioning... there is not a lot of room from above. I did not try lifting the vehicle to try from below as I already had the motor mount off and the motor suspended from below like in the video.

Dude great video! This helped me with my daughter’s 2016 focus. Thanks for sharing. And screw the naysayers and negative comments. At least you had the balls to share.

[garymartin]

Can you raise the motor a bit with the jack to get more room to pull out the water pump? Or would that damage the engine?

I have 2016 I used the green coolant also hope it’s going to be ok

[guardshack]

i dont have over heating problems or any leaks but my 2014 focus does make a grinding noise when idling. A mechanic friend of mine said it might be pump. im at 70, 000 miles. Would you recommend replacing it?

[fairfax_fran]

That thin coolant line is very fragile I bent it that same way you did and it crack and broke I replaced it also the cheap water pump off eBay that was $30 only lasted no more than 3, 000 miles the bearings went out made a grind noise than one day it was leaking like crazy I highly recommend going with the ome parts from ford that ranges from 60 to 90 buck if you order offline or go to the dealership

[wrholmes]

So whats the trick into getting the motor mount studs to stay in? Mine never stay in, btw a 8mm will get them in

[knockywigglesworth]

Pump the coolant level down from radiator or hose. Fluid transfer hand pump, way easier

[iamhewhospeaks]

I just changed my thermostat and was hoping to leave the car running to test the result. Came back to a smoking car. Guess I need to change the water pump now. Hoping to fix the overheating problem.

[geomcc]

make sure to get all the old gasket off engine before replacing water pump ! are there will be a round 2 with the water pump and you !

I've 2016 2.0L duratech engine .Can bad pump going out cause water and oil to mix ? I don't think so . Doesn't it take cracked engine or blown gaskets / seals to do that ?
