Water pipe has a open truck leaking anti-freeze need help locating part

Yes, your water pump attaches to the front of the engine block. If a leak opens up between the two, coolant goes into the crankcase along with oil. That means water and oil are being circulated through the bearings and cylinders of your engine. Don't drive it in this condition.

I ASSUME you are leaking from the engine, not the radiator? These engines have a tube running from a radiator hose to the back of the water pump. The pipe is 2 pieces. if thats what is leaking buy new pipes from the dealer with all o rings (2) . Theres also a BY PASS hose on the end of the pipe, replace that also. You should be able to replace them without taking off the intake manifold. They usually last forever unless you have not been keeping good coolant/ anti freeze.

if you r getting smell in car and fog on windshield, with known history for common problem, you have a heater core leaking, You could try a stop leak from a parts supplier, but you need a heater core, and is a rather big job, as entire dash needs to be pulled back to axcess

try stop leak, if that doesn't fix, you didn't waste alot of time and money

good luck, and if you wanna tackle job, let me know i will send guided steps to help you along

is it water or anti-freeze
if it is anti-freeze i would have to say your heart core is leaking bad
also check you engine coolant and see if you have lost any
get back to me and leave some feed back
hope i was a help

will try to help. where is the leak coming from? can you tell?under the front of motor where the engine fan is? could be water pump. could be a busted hose,upper or bottom radiator hose.there are 2 hoses that run to your heater core at the firewall or dash panel, could be there. leaking from sides of engine? could be a freeze out plug rusted through or if it's gotten below freezing and you did'nt have anti-freeze, most likely a freeze plug, they are designed to save your engine block from busting when you don't have anti-freeze in freezing weather. if you can repost your problem with a location, front, sides, or inbetween the back of engine and transission, i can help you. hope this helps and thank you for choosing fixya.com

it could be the water pump if the front of the engine is on that side. or heater hoses. with the engine cold, fill the system full. use straight water so you won't waste anti freeze. run the car until it gets hot. the system will pressurize. inspect the suspected area. the leak should be apparent. if the leak appears to be running from the engine block, it's most likely the pump.

Could be water pump, bad hose, bad gasket. First thing is first, find out what the problem is. Go to auto part store, get some dye for radiator system. dump it in, run vechile, use uv goggles and a uv light to determin where it is leaking from. Once found, a step by step process can be described for you to replace needed parts.

You need to isolated the location of the coolant leak. Check the radiator, hoses, and water pump for leaks. The water pump should have a vent or "weep" hole. If there is any coolant leaking from the hole, the water pump is defective. When checking the hoses, look for cracks or obvious signs of deterioration. Pay particular attention to areas where the hose clamps are located when looking for leaks. Overheating and coolant loss can also be caused by a faulty thermostat. The thing is that you need to find out where the problem is before it can be addressed properly. Hope this helped and best wishes.

it could be the freeze plugs. that can be expensive.

YOU HAVE A WATER LEAK SOMEWHERE, AND NEED TO LOCATE AND FIX IT, IF THE WATER YOU ARE FINDING IS ON THE BLOCK, CHECK THE PIPE CONNECTIONS, THE BLOCK PLUGS AND HEAD GASKET
