Hey Guys, before i go and start removing the wheel wells and stuff on the passenger side of the car does anyone have a scan of the coolant system for the gt. I have a leak somewhere near the belts and i'm praying its a hose and not the waterpump. If it is how much is a new pump anyway? Well the fluid is spraying on the belts sometimes. I initially thought it was a tensioner problem until i noticed the dries coolant stains on that side.

I put some leak filler and it seemed to help a bit but i still want to see if its a hose and change it b4 it ruptures on the highway.

HELP!!!!!!!!

Okay, I had this problem before too. I need a description of where your coolant is spraying though. I had a problem where this metal coolant valve (follow the hose from the bottle, you'll see it) was slicing into the side of the hose. I simply bent it away from the metal, replaced the hose, and I haven't had a problem since.

I've blown a water pump before, just not with my Celi. Replacing it was very, very, expensive. If you are dripping underneath while you are driving (you're leaving a trail) it's definitely the water pump.
