I have a 1999 dodge ram 1500 5.9l. It had a water pump leak or what I thought was. It kept overheating and would leak water out of the bottom of pump. I replaced the pump and gasket. The hoses didn't seem to be corroded or cracked. So I reattached everything and put it all together. Now there is water spraying out of the passenger side of the engine/pump. I can't tell exactly where it's coming from now. It doesn't look like the water pump is leaking from any sides. But I'm not sure what it could be. Maybe the top hose of the pump wherever it connects to under the ac. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

 

Could be you damaged the timing cover gasket. Your just going to have to look. All wecan do is guess. And please do not post in this section, post in the tech section. I'll move this. Thanks

 

I thought I had posted in the correct section. I apologize. I figured out the problem on my own. You were correct, the timing chain cover gasket was corroded and disintegrated. Although now at the moment there is a small drip coming from radiator and possibly some place else. Very small that doesn't cause puddling. Thanks for the advice however.
