My 1993 ford explorer has been leaking coolant for the past few days. I ruled out a head gasket problem due to the lack of white smoke, and the clean oil in the crankcase. The radiatior is not leaking nor is the resivoir. Also the cooling fan is still operational and keeps the engine from overheating. I am guessing that it is the water pump and/or seal. I am curious wat your opinion is and if it is actually the water pump. I dont know if this helps, but my oil pressure has been high and, chronologically, has paralleled the coolant leak. Thanks for your help

Highly doubt one has anything to do with theother. Your best bet would be to get under the ont of the truck and look up at the bottom of the pump with a bright flashlight to see if there is any coolant or signs of it in the past. It sounds like the pump, but look to be sure
