No leak trail? Seal, connection or pin hole somewhere. You’ll get it. 👊

Oh i found it, def water pump, either the seal to the block or to the transfer pipe. Just no time to work on it until tomorrow

Craziest thing only leaks when not under pressure, which leads me to believe is bad seal, o-ring, or the transfer pipe needs to be reseated. First going to check if water pump bolts need to be retorqued as that is easier access before checking transfer pipe which requires removal of thermostat housing and intake manifold and is a pita

Outside of that, happy Friday!

I'm loving the intake temps with new intercooler, getting as low as 2 degrees farenheit above ambient, pretty pretty coooool! 😎

My Jeep used to get hot especially when mudding or off-roading for a while. It had a rad fan with a spring clutch. I had enough and went to drill a hole through it to put a bolt in and lock it down. The bit broke off and jammed in flush. It held for years and still kept much cooler that before. Kept warm in winter too. Sometimes we get lucky. 👊
 
happy friday right back to y' all!!

Cheers!
I love some mystery seeds, evenPXL_20260613_155614028~2.jpg if by my own doing!
I think I wrote blueberry cupcake? Just dropped these in a moist bag, excited!PXL_20260613_135633171.jpg

No i didn't fix leak, but confirm it's water pump. Waking up early tomorrow to bring to friends garage to get out of the sun to take this shit apart
 
I tell you the first two years were rough, but i wouldn't trade what i have now with my wife for anything. She started calling me her best friend a few months ago and i just love it

Just added a little sticker of us below the previous custom sticker, pretty good representation of me and my best friend

Finally cleaned the car after months of sitting there, now that's she's on the road again 😁

My friends hate how unreliable my car is and how quirky she is to work on, but God damn i love driving her!! Feel like an addict, just throwing money at a habit, but fuck it, she makes me happy when she's running and I've never felt more right behind a 6 speed. Fucking 20 years old and still looks good with original paint.

Fixed!! Much less work than i anticipated.

Two of the 5 bolts on the water pump weren't torqued, we tightened those and not a drop of a leak since

Cheers

Always good when it’s a quick fix. Had a buddy swap tires after a flat when mudding. He forgot to tighten things up once he was back on level road and out of the muck. Almost lost his tire and had to go look for a couple lug nuts.

Now you get to drive it like you stole it. 👊🤣
