Honda Repair: 87 honda accord water leak, water coolant, freeze plug
QuestionI have water pouring out from the timing belt cover. water pump has been replaced and is dry. removed upper timing cover and don't see water from head. is there a freeze plug behind the timing belt cover?
AnswerThere is a water/coolant transfer pipe with a rather big o-ring on it that fits right behind the water pump. That is a very common problem on that particular body style of the Accord.
That o-ring will leak if it is worn.
Also check for rusted spots on the water/coolant transfer pipe.
I have seen those pipes with a hole in them that the coolant pours out from.
