Coolant Leak
I just got done replacing all 8 injector cups after chasing a fuel-in-coolant issue. That was a tough job! But RiffRaff tool made it bearable.
I also did a complete coolant flush with 2 cascade soap flushes + 6 water flushes. At the end the water came out nice and clear. Just kind of tan, rusty water with sediment/silicates.
I also installed all new upper and lower radiator hoses, degas bottle, thermostat, upper and lower RiffRaff billet water pump housings, new degas bottle hoses, and a coolant filter!
I wanted to pressurize the system to check for leaks before driving it far from home. Glad I did!
I found a very small, drip leak from the fan shaft at the water pump. Is this the actual water pump leaking or something behind the fan shaft?
At this point I had it pressurized to 16 psi and it dropped to about 15.25 psi over 30 minutes and had the small drip noted in the above picture.
Thanks for the help,
Sean
I’ve ordered a new water pump anyways.
Just weird to see it drip from the shaft like that only when pressurized via a pressure tester…
I drove it ~75 miles yesterday and didn’t have any trace of coolant leak.
