So quick question, when replacing the waterpump And gasket, is there another gasket that is placed behind the waterpump housing??? I just replaced the waterpump and there seems to a small leak from behind the housing. Any suggestions welcome.

 

Did you put any gasket sealer on the gasket?

 

Ya i did but its not leaking from the front of the waterpump housing, its leaking from the back.

 

There is a gasket between the pump and the housing, and between the housing and the block. Also there are two spacer washers on the left most upper housing to block studs, depending on the year.

 

Ok, sounds like i need the gasket thats between the housing and block. Anyone know where i can get one?
