Q: I was told my water pump housing gasket is what's leaking . But it's not near the water pump.
It's on the right side of center as you face the open engine compartment, near the top of the motor. I need to get the right gasket and swap it out. I need to sell this awesome running car. I've has it 14 months and I'm needing a part number or correct name of the gasket I need ASAP.
My car has 256000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
