Default Water Pump Tube Leaking.. WTF..!!

Ok so damn, this is definitely a newbie to me... The transfer tube that goes from thermostat to water pump has a pinhole leak dead center of the hose... Right between the alternator and oil filter, through that clearance u can see plain as day where its leaking?? How the hell did this happen ya think, and how am i supposed to take that tube off?? Doesnt look like anythings holding it on except the thermostat housing...

Notice the lil water drop near the light...

Yeah... its just the thermo housing that is holding it in place along with its respected hoses. Take off the housing and wiggle it a lil bit and it will come off. There is a little o-ring on the other end that connects to the water pump.

Connecting Pipe, O-ring....

Thanx dude i was lookin for that site but i thought it was like mlshonda or something haha... Well **** I guess I might as well take it off now, im guessing i should drain the system first right?? Take off radiator cap, and drain plug, that should do good enough right??? Also, where the pipe connects to the thermostat is there any o-rings or anything that i should need ya think???

Yeah, I would drain it for sure. I dont think there are any o-rings on the thermo side that I remember. Just the one by the waterpump should do it. GL and have fun


Glad I could help with something for once lol. Advice seems to be the only thing im somewhat good at
