Thx Max,
I replaced the WP last night thinking that was the source - laying
on my back in the garage makes it hard to find things like leaks. I
went on a test drive and the leak was worse than ever! The good news was
I never saw anything that looked like a bad head gasket. I will send
off a oil sample today and see what it says.
The odd part was seeing a leak on the drivers side which doesn't
have any real sources except at the firewall and windshield washer
heater connections. Of course the upper rad hose is on that side but if
it was leaking it would be easy to find them.
It looks like the pump area is leaking so i am going to pull the
gasket (which had a very poor fit) and put it back on after a good
inspection using soft permatex (altho I hate to) as a sealant.
Once I get the pump off i'll check my email again to see what ya'll
are saying....
Anything better?
Thx

Our Infiniti has a big coolant leak, which I'm pretty sure is the water
pump, but I won't be able to replace that until this weekend. My wife
needs to drive the car, so I've instructed her to keep a close eye on the
temp gauge. Last night I drove her car, but found it difficult to remember
to watch that gauge...
No over heating episodes yet...
