Atleast this will tell you a few things.If you have a rubber hose leak, it wont work. If you have a bad water pump seal(which I think you are fretting about) it wont work. If it is a bad connection,gasket, or something that you did , it will probably work,and fix your problem.Lot less labor intensive. |
