It has the same old story it leaks from the weep hole. I have no clue as to why they keep going out like every year.... I have tried all the coolants oils and etc..Anyone have any idea why this will be the ninth waterpump I will have to replace? Im lost and dont know why or how....Your help is needed.




Real hard water in your area or something? Maybe the system is not getting filled properly, immediately after a w/p change? Rebuilt pumps?
