My water pump is leaking from what looks like one of the bolts. Its the closet water pump bolt to the turbo. When I put the motor back together I used a brand new gasket and even put some RTV gasket maker on both sides of the gasket. I figured by doing this it would prevent any leaks.....Wrong...!! Well I'm wondering if I should just replace the gasket with another new one and leave out the RTV this time? Any input...? THanks...

tighten the bolt down more
with new gaskets you dont need to use rtv the gasket does all the work

Yanni thanks. I've tighten the hell out of the bolts but still leaking. I'm trying not to damage the threading. Guess I have to get a new gasket and try without RTV. Called around and nobody has the water pump gasket, looks like a dealer only part.
