So after fixing a few problems with the head gasket last night, cleaning the tb I drive the car home drove fine with no problems. take the car out this morning and noticed my garage has a small stain so i look under the car and see something just leaking like crazy near the front cat.. It was light green prolly Antifreeze.. the level of the antifreeze was getting lower so i put the car back and shut it off did not want it to over heat. So what is it? Water pump? something else? some hose ripped? How much am i looking at to fix this problem? same to fill up the Antifreeze and drive to the mechanic? its leaking very fast..

Thanks!

thanks for the link.

 

anyone know how much it would cost for a new water pump?

 

damn ray sorry to hear that...ive been swampped today and yesterday with shopping and studing.,.. let me know what happens..

 

whenever you get a chance give me a call.

 

okey dokey... 6 more pages to write on my final paper

 

I paid about $80 for one from the dealer. But when I pulled my old one out it was just the o-rings that needed replacing, not the entire pump. The o-rings eventually lose their elasticity and take a set and stop sealing effectively.
