Question type: Maintenance & Repair
Replaced water pump on 2008 Toyota Sienna and
now the water is not circulating through engine.
Water pump snapped and car got hot. I replaced it
along with a new thermostat and it is not pumping
water from the radiator. Any suggestions.

Did you purge air out of the cooling system? Look on youtube.

Yes, that has been done ...but going to try that again...keep the suggestions coming..thanks
Remove the heater hose closest to the thermostat there should be coolant in the hose, temporarily install a hose from that nipple to the coolant fill, start the engine, does water blast out of the hose? If not you have a bad water pump or check belt is on right also check to make sure the pump didn't snap again and it's correctly installed hope this helps
my car gasket fire then i replaced new gasket now issue heating i replaced rediator new water pump new but why not circulating water
