My water pump was leaking so I took it off and changed the gasket and put silicone around it also. Today I turned it ON to go to work and its still leaking. what else can it be? The Water Pump?

the waterpumps have internal seals that go bad, if it's leaking from the weap hole under the snout the pump itself needs to be replaced.

Yeah all bolts are tight and the bolt thats over the UDP is leaking. So a new water pump then?

So the weep hole is the bolt that is on top of the UDP. Right? If so just put JB Weld then the bolt on top of it?
