Title: Antifreeze leak
Post by: oldguy on December 30, 2021, 08:35:58 pm
I have antifreeze leaking around the water pump. I haven't been able to see exactly
where it is leaking. Any ideas. Tomorrow I will get my son to use his fancy
horoscope to see if I can find it. Hoping it's not the water pump.

The pictures didn't make it. You can see the drip forming right near the bolt.

"Horoscope"  ??

If there's any hose clamps anywhere near the wet spot, try tightening them a bit.

Several of us had the O ring leak as talked about in this thread.

Probably meant a borescope.

Yes I meant borescope. I hate guessing as to what needs fixing so I'm hoping that
tomorrow that I get to see where the leak is coming from. I was hoping for a loose
clamp, but I think I got that all checked out.

Well it's an O ring leak. Thanks Glen. I have it apart but I was too late finding it and
Cummins closed at noon and they may not be open until Tuesday and I was planning
to go the Whistler Sunday night to ski Monday. It looks like a delay.

Ski?  I am guessing you are not in Tucson...

Drop by, and I will hand you an o-ring.

Well it looks like I may get to go skiing. A friend of mine's brother used to run a
truck shop and I got a O ring from him. Its back together and almost filled with
antifreeze. The alternator is still off and I will heat up the engine to check for leaks
before I replace the alternator.
