Well, I finally got my 2nd O-ring for the Heater Return pipe, and installed the water pump. Looked great! Threw some water in the reservoir, no leaks. Reattached the belts, fan, etc, etc.....Filled her up with a mixture of Coolant/water, still no leaks.......Started her up, drip, drip, drip. Sigh. From what I can tell, it isn't coming from the water pump. I had 4 different leaks going. One was by the Radiator, I noticed I didn't tighten the hose completely. Another one that I could tell looked like it was coming from the oil pan??? Another was coming from the engine on the Power steering side.
What else could be leaking here? At the most, I saw one tiny spot of water on the bottom side of the Water Pump. None at the top mushroom seal, and none at the heater return pipe. Looks like the dang engine is leaking that damn sweet smelling green coolant.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
goates
