Just noticed some coolent on the ground under my jeep when I came home today and it looks like it did it last night too. So I think it just started in the last 2 days, the coolent level in the bottle looks like its still where it always is so It must not be leaking much. It also doesn't leak when its not running as it just did a couple drips after I shut it down.
Its on the very front on the and around the oil pan seal. It doesn't seem to be the lower rad hose, nor the uppers or thermastat housing.
So I guess my only other option is the water pump is going or the seal is leaking just a bit on the water pump housing to engine block connection.
The only thing is when I stick my fingers up under the water pump pully I can't seem to find exactly where the weep hole is and my finger doesn't come back wet with antifreeze. Maybe its further up and in then I thought and i just can't reach?
Either way its probly the seal on the water pump shaft going right?
I low on money right now but do have a parts jeep with the front of it all pulled apart so the water pump is easy to get at, should I put it in? That jeep had a cooling system inspection and a new rad hose and rad put in so the pump should be fine.
Oh yeah if it just started leaking how long till the water pump just goes fully out on me? I have a 30 minute drive there and back to my parts jeep and then I can change it? Should I go get it or am I just going to get stranded half way there?
