COOLANT LEAK! Backside Bottom of Waterpump. Why Is This Hole There??? Not cool
Was filling my recently rebuilt d16a6 up with fluids today, car is up on jacks in the front and I start filling the rad up, get about 2L in there and I start hearing a drip.
Look under the car, coming from drivers side rear, throw a bucket under there and climb under right away, theres a little steady stream that seems to be coming out of a little hole that is directly infront of the alternator
I just checked on my spare motor here and at the bottom right of the waterpump is a hole, kind of on an angle, on this motor here it wasnt plugged either
Is something supposed to go inside this hole or something? Obviously its not supposed to leak, but its not a threaded hole so I dont know what to do or what is the oem setup like
Thanks guys

Its not bad though, its basically new, oem pumps dont blow after one season
The pump ran fine also when the engine was pulled, new internals instlaled and now put back into engine
If I just plug this weep hole with some jb weld, will the water just go somewhere else or will it stay contained in there?

So plugging it would do what though? Water wants to come out, I refuse it to come out, where is it gonna go? will it just keep on flowing like normal?

it leaks becasue part of the gasket fails, eventually the whole ring will fail then water pour out then ur stranded
quit asking LOL just change it already
