Engine Cooling problem
1995 Volvo 850 Front Wheel Drive Automatic 177000 miles

I JUST REPLACED THE THERMSTAT AND ENGINE TEMP SENSOR AND NOW I HAVE A LEAK FROM UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR.

IT MAY BE THE WATER PUMP, BUT IT WAS NOT LEAKING BEFORE I DID THE REPLACEMENTS. CAN THAT HAPPEN? IS IT A PRESSURE ISSUE?

Hi there,

You will need to do a pressure test to determine the exact location of this leak, do this a nd report what you find if you require further assistance.
