[scasacasa]

Hi all, flushed radiator got rid of brown water now i have a coolant leek behind the water pump i think its where a heater pipe goes in the timing cover seems to stop when the engine is hot also i removed the thermostat because the temp gauge was going up three quarters then coming down then up then down any suggestions appreciated

You could try removing the pump, remove all traces of the old gasket and then replace it with a new gasket and Loctite goo.

Sorry, misread your post. Maybe some sort of radiator stop leak product then?
