Engine Cooling problem
1997 Chevy S-10 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

Having temp. issues. Looked saw hole in bottom of water pump housing. Was machined hole, plugged it and it started leaking on spindle or part that spins belt. Was that a pressure relief or what? If I had any money I would take it somewhere. Sadly I dont.
