You mean coming out of the bolt hole? or the water pump weep hole? I sure hope the housing isnt cracked... I wonder if its alum or steel...weldable? JB Weld if that were the case?

Got it running yesterday.... STILL LEAKING FROM TEH SAME SPOT. Its not the hose... obviously. but the old one was junk... It looks like the water pump was RTV'd on, and looks like the coolant is coming from the lowest bolt on the pump.... I am hoping I wasnt right initally about the pump! I...

If it wasnt for bad luck, I wouldnt have any at all.

Got the new hose on, but snapped the horn tubing in the process! Will have it ready to run tomorrow after work

Ttt

ok I've put a pic on here and highlighted with green where the coolant is coming from. the red, is a question if this screw is going into the coolant jacket??

Yeah, I checked all the ones I can reach... the one I cant get to is the lower radiator hose, on the pump side... and that is where it looks to be leaking... yet its not dripping off the hose, instead its dripping off the block in the same area as that hose.

Sr., I cancled the order :D

um... water pump isnt leaking.... lower radiator hose? is there anything in the block on the front side, like a bolt that goes through a water jacket or a freeze plug? I kind of jumped the gun on that water pump. maybe its just a hose?!

no kidding! I couldn't imagine the pain of doing this on the side of the road!

Just ordered the new pump, overnighted... $177 well I had planned to have a bbq tomorrow... looks like its going to be a wrench party instead.

ya know.. you may be right! haha In all reality I've put about 10,000 miles on the truck since March... I bet the truck is just getting the kinks worked out.

Yeah, I have a phone that can get me an emergency rescue and a pitcure party. So thats a no on the rebuld... crap. goodbye christmas money!

Ok so after fixing the heater hose leak, my water pump seems to be leaking out of the weep hole... pretty bad too. It seems the more I drive my truck the more it starts to break, lol. I know its likely cause it wasnt used much over the past 20 years or so... but geez, cant a guy get lucky...
