After replacing my water pump(yes it is on tight and the gasket is sealed) i'm leaking antifreeze again. it seems to be getting all over up above the pump but under the intake manifold as well. It's all in the center, none of it is on the sides near the valve covers, so i doubt it's a head gasket. I can't see it coming out and it doesn't do it continously, maybe a pint or so a day. I will go outside after being somewhere for a few hours and see a puddle underneath it in the parking lot. Seems to be a little further back than it was with the pump leak. Any help? I'm about ready to give up and sell the thing.

EDIT: by under the manifold, i don't mean it's leaking right underneath it between it and the engine, i mean in the general area lower than the manifold.

Broken mainfold/seal :dunno:

Can you post up a picture of the leak area?

Note, either one would cause a drivability issue.

if its not a big leak or anything, check your heater hoses?

thats what it was on mine.. had the same prob as you. drive around, its fine.. come to a dead stop, park car, come back in an hour, no water. :/
