My 08 F250 has a coolant leak. I found it on the lower radiator hose going into the water pump. It leaks where the hose attaches at the waterpump with a spring clip. I looked on fordparts.com and it looks like there is an o ring at that connection...they don't list it and the part # it gives won't come up. Is there an o ring there?

 

there is an o-ring there. there is an updated hose for that concern.

 

Thanks for the info. I'm going to try the 6 dollar o ring first then if that doesn't work I'll try the 111.00 dollar hose

 

Be sure to check the upper hose first. Sometimes that is the leak and it just drips down the block.

I'd really recommend the new hose but you can't argue with 6 bucks.

 

The upper hose was the first thing I checked. Everything I dry except at the lower water pump connection. Thanks for the info.
