i know i know, newbie question. I even used to know the answer, but cant seem to pull it up out of the murk of my memory. i started putting everything together last night and started filling up all the fluids. I filled the radiator and found out that i have a leak coming out of the little hole in the bottom of the water pump. I cant remember what that means, but I'm thinkin new water pump or a new seal. what do you guys think?

That's the weep hole leaking. Means you have bad seals in the waterpump and it's time for a new one. :flipoff2:
