coolant leak problem
 

So i was driving home and had no problem parked my truck and no problem walked out later and found a puddle of coolant under my truck and its dripping down the front of the engine. I was wondering if the water pump has a leak by hole like the older fords where when your water pump is starting to fail it will leak by. Its on a 2004 F250. i need to figure it out cause i got one month till the bulletproof kit goes on.

Can you tell where it's coming from? I had an issue with mine over the summer where I started it up, and it was fine, but as soon as I started driving it, it built pressure and coolant was spraying everywhere! Ended up being a clamp down on the big coolant hose coming from the front cover. I tore it down two or three times trying to see where it was leaking from, and as I pulled that hose, I put my pliers on that clamp and it just buckled. Put an actual hose clamp on and problem went away. It came completely out of the blue too. Try and track down exactly where it's coming from first.

It was my water pump and man was that fun to get out. it was a pain but got er done. cleaned and flushed the coolant. it all looked good which was nice.:tu::jump:

I'm doing a cab off here hopefully starting this week (keeps getting pushed back) and ordered a new water pump and thermostat to do as preventative measures. I went with an alliant water pump, it has metal blades on it now, interested to see how this works over the stock plastic setup.
