Are you sure its coolant? If the water pump fails you will have one heck of a leak, so I doubt its that. Let it warm up and keep and eye on it and see if you can pinpoint a leak.

Does your overflow hose have a clamp on it?? Some came without and over time they will leak from under neath the hose and you can't even see where its coming from. That fixed my problem. I hope yours is that easy.

tatertots · 11-08-2009, 08:29 PM

yes i know its coolant and yes it has a clamp on it and it looks like the coolant is coming somewhere from the passanger side front of engine and it was red and it got into the intake box somehow

yeah it sounds like it could be the water pump, it is located on the front passenger side of the engine. When mine went it soaked my engine bay and covered passenger side and windshield of my truck. If it is leaking good enough the fan will blow coolant everywhere.

you right, I had pump failure on my 2003 I had hell big leak, I came back from 160 miles trip got home late night and when I was parking bummm pump failed I was lucky that it happened right after I got home anyway cost me $500 to get & install new one.

***twhetten*** · 11-09-2009, 12:23 PM

Sorry to tell you but you got took if it cost $500, you can get a pump from autozone for between $50 and $80 dollars with a lifetime warrenty, and it is about a 30 minute job to replace it, it a piece of cake to do.
