Water pump
I rebuilt my water pump and installed it using the new bolts that are machined to look like the original studs and nuts, doing this I didn’t have to pull the radiator. I have a leak coming from the top left bolt. These studs are threaded all the way to the nut. Is it possible the leak is around the threads?

Re: Water pump
Yes , there a couple of through holes in the head that will leak, drain the coolant remove the look alike studs and seal the threads that go into the head, refill with coolant
