New Timing Belt and Component Kit with Water Pump and Seals from 1AAuto.com https://trq.video/ib-1AEEK00272
This video shows you how to install a timing belt and water pump on your 1997-2001 Lexus ES300. The water pump keeps coolant flowing through your engine. Common failures of the water pump will leave the coolant leaking, or stagnant. Both will lead to overheating if left untreated. Install a new engineered to fit water pump from TRQ for total peace of mind.
This repair was done on a 2001 Lexus ES300 Base 3.0L and the process should be similar on the following vehicles:
1997 Lexus ES300
