You know the 90 degree metal elbow that's attached to the water pump that the lower radiator hose attaches to?
I have a drip of coolant that forms on the lower edge of that elbow where it attaches to the water pump after shutdown.
...So it looks like its coming from where the elbow attaches to the water pump. Do you think it's leaking there? Does that gasket in there have a reputation of failing? Or do I need a new water pump? Where do you typically see leaks when the water pump goes?
Crawling under and looking around I also see one drip of coolant on the oil pan about 3" from the oil drain plug and another drip on the head of one of the oil pan flange bolts
About 93,000 on the truck. And can't quite tell if the coolant level has changed .....maybe but if so, not much.
Thanks
