I noticed my water level going down somewhat slowly. Found that under the water pump area there was a leak when then engine was at running temperatures. A friend said it was the water pump, so I removed the water pump. the gaskets seems to have been ok, when turning the pump manually, it turns smoothly and without noise. the hoses attached to the pump seem to be ok. There is no water on the dip stick. The weep hole does not seem to have leaked water. What else could it be?
