Hi all, just wondering if anyone can help me, i im new on this site, and im hoping someone on here can help me.

Well, I have a toyota Mr2 MKll gt, and just recently its started to leak water out of a little 5-6mm hole on the water pump housing...The hole is definately meant to be there, it looks like a bleed point, but there is no screw or grommet etc there anymore.

Was wondering if anyone knows what goes in there if anything, there doesnt seem ot be a thread for a screw to go in there but the hole could be 30-40mm deep. Just hope someone can help me. Cheers newbie

yes it is mate, im personally thinking my water pump/gasket as is knackered, but dont want to shell out for a new one if it isnt!! Any quick fixes that could cure it etc. Cheers

If the pump is still working, clean the hole and fill it with JB Weld.

Was the car over heating? Does water circulate like it's suppose to?
You asked for a quick fix. It may get you by for awhile, but the water pump should be replaced.They aren't that much on Ebay.
