Evening all erm has anyone experienced water leak at the pump I put a new pump on with gasket it was fine and now it's decided it wants to leak.it's not a big leak u could call it a constant drip all the bolts are tight anyone have any ideas thanks all

they could be overtight, they are only 10nm or something not that tight

also could be corrosion on the block...

or they do have an internal seal too - so could be the water pump.

I'm baffled because it's a new pump so if I've done the bolts a tad to tight that could cause it to leak
