ok might sound gay.but i never had a water pump go bad on me..how do u tell if your water pump is bad?i drove my car back home from friends house and there is water all over the drive way..its night so i can not see nothing but car was not over heating or nothing umm rad water is dirty as hell i notice when i bought it..any idea?i don;t think i crake the rad

 

before you do a water pump, check all your hoses...

Hard to see exactly where something is leaking, it could be traveling thruout the bay before it drops down or something

 

u i will in the morning..i wanted to know if there r any callls or anything

 

I kno for older models, if you can 'wiggle' the part the pully connects to up and down by hand it's getting old...

other than that, just see if there's water coming out of the gasket area...or any other part of the wp

 

an other sign is if it leaking coolant from the weep hole on the water pump that means its bad thats how all my water pumps went bad never over heated eather

 

Thats a major sign. You have to look at it from the bottom and on the snout just a few inches from the pully you will see a hole. They are built into it so you can tell when the seal inside is going out.

 

From your ID, I assume you have a LT1 engine. If that is the case, and the water pump is leaking, it will drip coolant on the Optispark distributor. The opti does not like dampness and will quickly die, so if you wait too longto fix the problemyou will need a new $400 distributor.

 

Nice catch Pete. I never pay much attention to user names and then there are people that don't belive in putting any specifics in thier post as well.

 

yeah i found what was it.it was my over flow tank
