300e coolant leak, HELP! Stranded otr.
While travelling from NC to CT my 300te developed a coolant leak. A steady stream from around the h2o pump region. I cannot actually find the source from any angle, even with a mirror. My question is... If it is the pump (I suspect where it mates with the block via an "o" ring) what are my options short of a new pump as I have one back in NC. Could I use silicone with the existing ring? Could the problem be something else? My biggest problem is that I have to be back in NC Monday night!
In desparation I had to resort to using bars leak to get me from VA to CT. It held intil the CT state line then began leaking again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rl White
