water pump

Having trouble getting a list of genuine toyota/lexus parts numbers for all bits required to change water pump and camshaft belt on my 1UZFE which came out of a 1989 Celsior (eng # 1UZ0010489) now fitted to a 1956 F100, and where the best place to purchase parts.

Need some opinions here. I am doing the water pump today and I was always under the impression that from the factory they used FIPG on the WP. There was a gasket when I pulled it off. I'm pretty sure it had been leaking because there was always a pool of coolant right below the crank since i...

Hi All, There are 2 radiator hose connections on the engine (1994 none VVTI) , from the front the hose with the thermostat (plastic right angle housing) goes to the lower radiator connection and the streight goes to the top radiator fitting. Is this right and how is the circulation flow on...

Ok I bought a 92 lexus for 300 that needed a water pump. I get the car and its already torn down to the water pump, bolts already taken out, this is my first ls400 so I dont know what goes where, im usually good at this if Im the one that took the car apart. Here is where im at now, I just put...

I've been thru this forum about the use of electric water pumps and two things that continue to go unanswered are (1) what is the coolant flow rate of the 1UZ and (2) do the electric pumps provide any real benefit over the standard mechanical unit. I have always been of the opinion that the...

Hello all, just in the process of plumbing my cooling systerm up on my conversion, I would like to know does the coolant flow out of the engine through the pipe without the thermostat or vice versa?

Hi there guys Does anyone know if I can upgrade the stock water pump to pump better? I have a heating issue and this is one of the things I could do I guess:nervous:

I am about to change a water pump on a 93 LS 400. I have a tech article that also includes changing the timing belt. Does anyone know if the timing belt has to be changed at the same time? I was told it was changed before I purchased the car and only has about 10,000 miles on it. Please...

my 93 ls400 (1uz-fe) water pump is failing n ready parts are not available at my current location. 1) is there any "quick fix" solution other then laying the car up till i can get hold of the water pump. 2) is there any swaps available for the 1uz as far as the pump is concerned.or maybe...

A mate came around today to replace the water pump and timing belt on my 1UZ before I refit it to my Landcruiser project. The problem is the water pump I recieved is slightly different in that it has an extra oval shaped water gallery on the bottom right hand side. The engine is from a UZZ30...

Anyone tried electric water pumps? V8Supra had a bad experience with the Davies Craig unit in 2003 but I've heard good things about the Mezieres. When they're mated up with a thermostatic PWM controller, and run in conjunction with a thermostatic electric fan controller, in theory, you can...

I`m in the process (all but done) of mounting my radiator on the tray behind the cab. I`ve used a GQ patrol radiator which is about twice the size of the hilux one and have put the twin AU falcon thermos on it. What I want to know is will the standard water pump be ok for this? Remember it now...

Attacking this repair one hour at a time. So far, i have taken out most of the parts except the crank pully. Since i have single turbo, i would need to take out the downpipe (DP is on the way of the crank pulley 22 mm screw) I got a set of pulley puller already, but need to get the crew to...
