Water pump mystery
Well I started noticing every once in awhile there will be a little puddle of antifreeze under my car, its not every time just every now and then. I check all the hoses and the only thing that was wet was the water pump and it was leaking down the bottom radiator hose. What is going on?? I tightened all hose clamps and it still does it. Is there water coming out of the water pump itself??

Yeap! Water pump. There is a little hole on the pump, that when it is worn out it will leak. Time for a new one, not to costly and easy to change...

The small hole in the pump is there just for the situation you are having. Why not use this time to get an aluminum piece? Just a thought.
