Subject:Re: oil cooler leaking coolant?

Hi Jason,
    I have seen bad coolant pumps leak coolant through the weep hole and it will dribble down the oil cooler. The coolant pump weep
hole should not have coolant dripping from it.  You can see the weep hole from the bottom if you get the right angle.
