Confirmation on leak - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #75128 2 posts Started by bgpursuit
Hello everyone, just picked up a 1994 Celica ST with a little under 70k on her.

There is a slight smell of coolant, and peering under the vehicle revealed a slow coolant drip from the passenger side (front) of the engine. If I am correct, this means it's time to change my water pump (and timing belt/tensioner)?

Just looking for confirmation before I order the parts...I've heard it's a bit tedious of job, as well.
7A engine has the water pump external to the timing belt, but you're 10k over due on the belt anyways if its never been done. use a mirror to confirm where the leak is coming from.
