HELP! water pump 200 83

posted by  someone claiming to be cory smith on  Thu Nov 30 07:05 CST 2000 [RELATED]

hey

i just finished installing a new (napa) water pump in my wagon. at first things were ok...no leaks engine operating at proper temperature etc. then two days after i was walking to my car when i noticed a puddle under my car. the heater return i think thats what its called to the rear of the pump was dripping. i put the gasket on there and it seemed like a real tight fit. what can i do to stop this leak. i figure im probably gonna have to start from scatch ( take everything apart again ) but where would i get another rubber seal if its been damaged.

p.s. the one on there before seemed like it was crushed and somewhat deformed. im wondering if the new one simply rolled over the lip and is leaking that way?

please help

cory
