Water Pump Leak, i think......... HELP
Last night i noticed water tricling from underneath my car. Just now iv had it on the jacks and it only leaks while the engine is running, or at least runs twice as fast while the engine is running i didnt hang around long enough to see if it completely stopped while the engine was switched off. I have some photos and videos of the situation and i was wondering if anyone could diagnose it. Whether it is the waterpump, waterpump gasket or anything else it could possibly be. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks, Loui

Hello, Yeah mate i only found out yesterday though. I though it would have just been run by the aux belt. Do you reckon it is just the water pump, or could it be more serious?
Also does anyone one have any DIY guides to changing waterpumps or clutches. I have done both before but never on a scooby.
Many thanks, Loui

I would check all the pipes first before taking it apart as thats a big leak,
Did the leak just start that size or has it got worse?
Not sure of any guides about for doing these but someone might no.
