coolant leak
Been chasing a coolant leak it seams forever. Started at least 3 years ago. Found more than 1 in that time and fixed but there was 1 more. Had to refill every 2 or 3 weeks. Not much. Probably only a couple cups.
Changed my oil today and thought I'd look some more.
Seemed very wet in back of where the timing mark is and in back of the water pump. Weep hole has always been dry.
Happened to see something between the pump and the engine. This is what I pulled out,
If this is really the gasket the holds the 2 parts together, why wouldn't coolant pour out?
Water pump replaced in 04 about 22,000 miles ago
