Changing water pump

[Kennnymc]

How bad of a job is it to change water pump on 2014 eco diesel.

Just from the drawings it looks like you remove the belt and get after it. Maybe 3 hours? Looks like you would want to do it on a lift or pull the radiator.

It looks like the O rings are sold separate.

Technically the fuel rail should be replaced once removed. Some owners have reported they just unscrewed the line with 3/4 inch wrench and moved out of the way.

So does the fuel rail have to be removed

 

[John]

Apparently not completely.

Thanks for the info. I think I’m gonna order a water pump and seal kit and try to change it out in a couple of weeks.

Good luck with the replacement and let us know how it went. The guy on the other forum said it took him two hours.

Well I talked to a shop and they said it was a ten hr job at about $100 per her. I studied some looking at it and it does look like that bad of a job. I will let y’all know how it goes.
