Hi all, I've ben working a lot on my car latly and there seems to be a new development. I have a water leak. If I take off the radiater cap water just slow drizzles out. I have the car on ramps but can't locate the source. I'm guessing the water pump? Anyone have any pictures of the water pump on the engine? Also has anyone changed one to tell me how.

you really need to pressure test the system so you know where its leaking from

Hi, it was leaking from teh water pump. Got a hold of a relative who works on cars every now and then and changed it... wee no more leak. The waterpump was only 39.99 from pepboys. Bosch replacement. alla nd all about a 1 1/2 hours job. I took out the radiator and gave it a good cleaning. Lot of dust and leaves where on it so hopfully it'll cool even better.
