Heat Report post Posted June 11, 2017 Went fishing with family at Dogtown yesterday and on my way out had a massive coolant leak on my truck. Its stuck in Williams now, no mechanic till Monday. Any thoughts or suggestions on helping me get home to Yuma ASAP with my truck? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heat Report post Posted June 11, 2017 Not sure, but my guess is maybe water pump. It is slinging water all over from leaking onto belt. Engine running not horrible, turn it off and it spills like crazy. One caveat is I am not much of a mechanic at all. Biggest job I've done by myself is changing a starter on an old Toyota pickup.

Heat Report post Posted June 12, 2017 Thanks for everything guys! George Otero out of G & M Tires in Williams helped me get it fixed. Had to go in to Flag for parts. Ended up water pump was shot. Not all was a loss however! Fish were biting good and all the kids caught fish. My daughter's Frozen rod was the hot stick. Soak time of less then five minutes and it would get bit! Friends kids all caught their first. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
