For some reason my truck is leakin coolant. It was leakin a while back from the bottom of the water pump and I replaced the water pump and it stopped . But for reason it looks like its leakin from the same spot. Anybody got any ideas or tips any help would greatly be appreciated, thanks

did you get a reman water pump? Could have gotten a bad one out of the box

Check the hoses around the pump. They can look like a pump leak.

Or timing cover

What engine do you have first of all? Because if it's the straight 6, the timing cover isn't by the water pump lol

It's a 302

Check the longer bolts on pump.. They run into the water passages where they go into the block. I usally put some teflon tape on threads when I install them. And smear little anti sieze on smooth part of bolts. That helps with those bolts from getting stuck in timimg chain cover.

You reckon I should try that to see if its stops leakin?
