I have coolant driping from the water pump . Is it ok to use gasket maker for this part or do i have to go out and get the factory one?

the car runs great does not over heat at all. is is posible that its just a gasket problem??

my car is a 91 gxl:confused:

Where's it leak from? There's so many places on the pump where it could leak, that we need a little more precise info.

It's possible that it is a gasket problem.But try to loate exactly where it is dripping from.Waterpumps have spitters in the shaft.They are wear indicators.If water is coming out of this hole then yoy need a new waterpump,if it's the gasket I think you'd be better off putting a new gasket on.Save yourself the headache.

Exactly what I was implying. :) RTV will hold up, but we always suggest the gasket :)
