If you are running straight anti freeze (it will leak) try mixing with distilled water atleast 50/50, if it is real hot go 60/40 more water. If it continues to leak, your gonna need a new mechanical seal.

yea its already mixed with distilled water so its looking like the mechanical seal and is that hole supposed to be there...it doesnt look like someone drilled its so my guess is that it is supposed to be there

[leager-n-ky]

yes, it is suppose to be there.

x2, the hole is supposed to be there. If it's leaking your mechanical seal is going bad.
