water pump leak

[Carl]

I can get some pics - but I don't have any now. I expected all the water to come out the top (discharge) of the pump, but water was coming out the from where the pump halves meet. There seems to be a slot in the lower pump housing that would allow water to run out. Is it normal for water to flow from places other than the pump discharge?

Thanks

sounds like you are missing a gasket and possibly have a warped water pump base
