Guest Scottish Scooby Posted June 8, 2006 My Pugs leaking water when the engine is running. It doesn't seem to leak though when the engine is off. Could this be the water pump? If so, how hard is it to replace one? I've already put a whole bottle of Rad Seal in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pug_ham 244 3 Cars Posted June 10, 2006 Where is it leaking from then, left or right handside of the engine? Maybe a hose is splitting. Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NOsMAN 10 1 Cars Posted June 11, 2006 inspect while the car is running Ive swopped a water hose this week only to find out it was the wrong one , so second time around i left the car running so it would piss it out and i could see where the leak was .Now i have managed to replace the annoying small water pipe underneath the distributor ..

Guest Scottish Scooby Posted June 19, 2006 Doesn't look like a pipe as its coming from somewhere in the engine bay. Possibly the water pump? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duroc 2 1 Cars Posted June 19, 2006 as its coming from somewhere in the engine bay Can you be a little more specific. You need to run the car whilst having a good look in the engine bay and from underneath the car, to pinpoint the problem. The water pump is under the cambelt cover. So if the leak is coming from the bottom of the cambelt cover, then that's the likely culprit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Scottish Scooby Posted June 29, 2006 how do you change the water pump? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trickywoo 0 Posted June 29, 2006 how do you change the water pump? The cambelt has to come off and its behind that. Might it be the metal link pipe on the inner wing on that side thats leaking? (They do like to corrode). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
