Well, here's how my day went. It was supposed to be about 70 degrees today so I figured I would change the oil and wash the car. So I start unscrewing the filter and realize that it's not going to come out. It's being blocked by those small hardlines that run right underneath it. So I'm like great, motor mounts are shot. So I jack up the engine very slowly because I don't really know how far it can go safely. I was about to give up when I finally had enough clearance. I was pretty stoked. So, I finish my oil change and start the car to check for leaks.
I'm sitting on the ground for a few minutes and I see a leak. I reach under and when I pull my hand back, it was green. I knew I had a coolant leak but I could never tell from where. One of the other lines that runs below/in front of the oil filter was wrapped in that plastic coil and it had filled with coolant from where ever the leak is. So my puddle area is right where the oil drips when you take the filter off. I looked down on the engine while it was running and I saw coolant running down from behind the water pump.
Now, my question is, is the weep hole on the very bottom of the water pump? Or is it higher to where you can see it running off the pump like mine is?
