Leaky

Okay I got this problem... My truck likes to lose cooling fluid, not a ton, jsut some. And I noticed at first it was at the front of the truck, get up and look up under it and I notice it was coming from the water pump.. SO IDK if its the shaft or the weep hole but its going to be repalced.. Next thing I noticed the next day was at the back of my engine ont eh drivers side... Its also dripping fluid fromt here. Is that the stupid EGR where they have coolant running threw it? Cause if so I heard you can delete the damn thing all togehter, and I will do that (Specially if there is a power gain) But yeah. O gpt the first leak figured out, now help with the second one would be really appreciated. Thanks guys in advance.

Are you leaking coolant on the back drivers side of the motor, or is it diesel or oil? If you've got a 2003 or newer powerstroke, then by all means disable or delete the EGR. If you're talking about the OBS leaking coolant in that area, check the oil cooler. (you can't delete that, but you can fix or replace it)
