Ok, so I've been having problems with my car where the temp went high.
I knew my Koyo Rad was fine and realized that I'd been losing alot of Coolant. I saw some dripping underneath..maybe 1 drop in 20 secs. I figured there was a leak. I opened up up the covers leading to the water pump just like I did when I had changed my timing belt. One bolt was sticking out and I knew that was the problem. I started to ratchet that bolt back in, but then it snapped...I don't know how much of it snapped off, but I have to put a bolt in there to stop the leak. Any suggesting would be appreciated! I need this done ASAP. It is a very tight space and I really can't see how far the bolt is in there.....I just know that the whole bolt screwed in almost till the end..then it snapped...and I'm missing the tip of this bolt.. It must be far inside and I can't see it... HELP HELP HELP!! This post has been edited by Betta-J: Apr 4, 2011 - 8:22 PM |

yeah, they make em small, but the smaller it is, the more prone to breaking it is.
