Coolant leak?!?!

Tteal235 · Jul 30, 2017

So I just recently replaced my rad. Now I'm seeing coolant on the ground again. It's coming from the engine just behind where the whole belt assembly is. I'm Hoping it's just a seal on the water pump? Got some pics. Anyone had this issue recently or in the past to help me pinpoint it before I rip this sucker apart?

I few months back I had a coolant leak. The thermostat housing was leaking. Replaced housing, no leak

Coolant Leak

This will help if you know anyone who has a pressure cap tester they can put a test on your engine and you will find your leak.But make sure the engine is cold make sure they don't go overboard pumping you cooling system up you may have one leak and fine two.

Clean the area up and look for where it's dripping, if it's directly under the water pump it's the the water pump. That's where mine was and someone on this forum told me to go ahead and replace the the water pump instead of just the gasket since you have to take it off anyways and since you need your coolant drained change the thermostat gasket too just to make sure that you got the leak taken care of
