Water Leak around the water pump!
 
I've noticed since it has been colder here in MS that radiator fluid was leaking somewhere. I finally found it leaking around the water pump area, but I haven't pin pointed it yet. Anyone had this problem?

It is the water pump. Time to replace.

I had a guy tell me something about a "weephole"? What the heck is that?

BigAl Jan 24, 2003 06:05 PM

How long do I have before total failure? It seems to do ok during normal in city driving. How easy is it to replace myself?

Jseabert's is on the way south, too. Easiest access is through the right front fender well. Pull the tire and work through there.

I'm picking up my new pump tomorrow. Thanks for the all the advise. It's in the 20's today and tomorrow is supposed to be the same. Gonna be cold.

Alright guys, I can't get one of the bolts off the water pump. There is a pulley that the engine mount is blocking and I can't get the bolt out without removing the pulley and I can't sem to remove the pulley without removing the motor mount. Any suggestions?

Man, I don't see what you're talking about, but I'm series1. I looked at the book, and it doesn't talk about pulling any pulleys from 92-99 at all, except the water pump pulley. Which pulley are you talking about?

BigAl Jan 25, 2003 06:41 PM

along with the torque axis mount...

Where/What is the torque axis mount?

willwren Jan 25, 2003 09:23 PM

Torque axis mount should be for a 95 only. Not previous or after.
