I have a water pump just like this one:

It's leaking from one of the holes indicated by the arrow in the picture. What are these holes, and why would it be leaking from there? Thanks,

John

That is the "hello, my seal is failing - please replace me before my bearing fails and my shaft falls out" hole.

Sounds hopeful - what's the best way to do that? So I don't have to replace the whole pump?

Replace the whole pump, ya can't get rebuilding kits for them any more. If you find kits let us know, I've been lookin for them for a year.

Thats kinda like that little scraper thing on your disc brakes that tells you to replace the pads.
Its time to buy a new one.

Some guys put a screw in the hole but that would be like useing a cork to stop diarrhea.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
