Re: small coolant leak

[Gary Huff <scirocco86@home.com>]

Food for thought. My 86 is pissing coolant out the waterpump when it
cools off. Seems the plastic part of the waterpump that houses the
thermostat doesn't like being heated and cooled off over adn over. When
it cools off and I come back to get into my car there are puddles of
coolant under it from where it ran down the front of the oil pan. Check
stuff like that. Consequently my water pump is making funky noises so
it's getting replaced along with the noisy pulley. *YAY* for no more
coolant leaks, a low temp thermo, and fan switch along with AC
recharging.
