I knew I heard a Utah accent... then the license plate shot.

@gironic lol I'm glad I've still got it!

Do you have to change the belt and pump at same time?

[briansmobile1]

@flickerman68 No, but it's very prudent to do so. It combines labor and ensures you don't have to repeat the process unnecessarily or lose a belt due to a pump seizing up.

Great video! Do you advise replacing both tensioners when your in there? I'm about 40k overdue to change mine lol, oops.

@DudeNiceVCR Not at 90K miles. DEFINITELY at 180K miles.

@creativeinventor I'm a fan of using the right tool for the job. I love the hammer, but it has it's place. I used a plasma torch and some DEF (Urea based diesel exhaust fluid)  You know to reduce oxides of nitrogen during the burning process. (piss on that!)

[creativeinventor]

Did you use that BIG ASS HAMMER (BAH) to remove the "idiot hoods"? =)

@mcook4098 Yes it's very similar even to the 3.2L ones too.
