I changed thermostat & everything OK one hour later I restarted engine & now have coolant leaking from either water pump or front of cylinder head any ideas as to why it started leaking? No leaks before.
thermostat was stuck open for about 8 months thats
why I changed.

Thanx Rick.

You will have to pressure test the system to pin point where the leak is, sometimes these thing do happen, a new leak starts for no particular reason. Do a pressure test first.
