Had an overheating issue last Tuesday found that my coolant was low filled it up and since I started a Job this week and moved 500 miles I am just getting around to finding where the coolant is going. This is all happening shortly after I flushed the cooling system first with the house then two full fills of distilled water then and replaced it. In replacing it of course I asked for my Dad to pick me up some orange Coolant and he was half way through filling it before I realized it was dexcool :notallthere: (He taught me everything I know but obviously I need to start checking after him) I figured since I was pressed for time(needed to get back to my house a 4 hour drive) it would be fine for a couple of thousand miles it has been about 2 weeks since then. Reading up I have seen people on LX forums using Dexcool without any issues. Anyways It is weeping slowly just looking about a half a gallon in a week. When I squeeze the hose right above where the liquid pool(Where the Thermostat is located) it comes out a little faster the edges of where the thermostat is all dry it seems to be on the pump it self I have attached an image here so you can get an Idea of where it is. This is the water pump and is probably the gasket correct just figured I would run it past your guys eyes as well to give me some confirmation. Thank you all!
