I have not been able to find an answer in previous post so here goes... I see water at a somewhat steady stream coming from the bottom of my engine water circulation pump. There is a weep hole, but that's not where it comes from, it's the bottom side of the pump. ...Ok, no prob, I have always been told that if you see water from the weep hole then the seals are going bad, replace the pump. In this case it's not the weep hole, it is the bottom of the pump... fast fwd- new gasket set, sealed still streaming. Ok, a buddy had a new PCM pump and I bolted it on, still streaming. I am now officially at a loss. Before I buy anything I'll wait for you guys to chime in with hopefully the same experience and fix before... ------------- Johnnie 1987 Ski Nautique 1981 Fish Nautique 1980 Fish Nautique 1979 Fish Nautique 1986 Master Craft 1984 American Skier |

Maybe it is coming from above. Possibly thermostat hsg gasket? ------------- “Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.” Ben Franklin |

engine is a 351 PCM... block looks great, no crack, no water in oil, not coming from the thermo... Believe a new gasket and some serious gasket maker around the engine holes (whatever they are called) and the bolt holes will do it. Here are some pix.  ------------- Johnnie 1987 Ski Nautique 1981 Fish Nautique 1980 Fish Nautique 1979 Fish Nautique 1986 Master Craft 1984 American Skier |
