I guess I need a little help diagnosing here.   My 87GL is leaking water at
a fast pace, with the drips pouring from the oil filter mount, only when the
engine is running.   Where the actual leak is I cannot determine without at
least removing some of the sheetmetal and viewing in the daylight.

Does this sound like something simple like a hose or waterpump, or a more
complex problem like a head gasket?

I will probably have to leave the van in Yuma and head back to LA in a
borrowed car, so also does anyone have a suggestion for a shop in Yuma, AZ?

Thanks and Merry Christmas!
