BANgLE Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Hey guys, One thing after another with this car it seems!! I've started to notice coolant on the garage floor and also the car running hotter, which I'm guessing is from loosing lots of fluid while driving. Here's a shot of where it is coming from underneath the car near the front. Not sure which part this is. Any help!? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilDead Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Water pump seal went south? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Abides Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Mine is doing that exact same leak. But they say just go ahead and replace the pump while your in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyman03 Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Water pump. either the gasket or breather. either way you are going to want to replace the pump and gasket. -Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivantruckman Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 + 1 on water pump seals, theres a wheep hole at the bottom of the pump. cheaper to replace the whole pump. i got this one last week, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SUBARU-WATER-PUMP-DL-GL-GL-10-RX-XT-BRAT-1-8L-1985-1991_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem3a57b5032cQQitemZ250579583788QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indrid cold Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Hmmmmm... so tell us... how long has it been since you did your timing belts? Noticed the fresh looking drip of oil mixed in... possibly front seals, cam/crank seal? No rush... seen um poor oil out till changed. Yea, one thing after another but when they get to be 20 years old they like to have some attention... I call it "bonding time". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Abides Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 That is a great waterpump price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durania Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I knew exactly what the problem was by just looking at the picture. Since you're going to be in there replacing the water pump and gasket. Go ahead and do the timing belts and tensioners too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94Loyale Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 And make sure to check the hose that is right above the water pump I've had a few of them leak and look like the water pump. Just make sure it's not ready to fall apart while you are in there,lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BANgLE Posted March 7, 2010 Author Share Posted March 7, 2010 Thanks guys! Looks like everyone agrees on water pump. I'm just curious though..in the picture from the E-bay auction that part looks much different to me. These are the same though? I just don't see visually how they are.
