Put my new water pump on today and noticed the bottom is super close to the crank, I believe. Anyone run into this with aftermarket. All the bolts went in smooth and the gasket lined up nice. Thoughts?
I got good coolant in it, fleet charge with SCA and mix with distilled water. Fan clutch is good.
Do I need to drain the radiator or can I just loose some out the pump when I remove it??
Alright folks my water pump finally went on me today, got a couple questions. First off what's the easiest way to remove my fan?
I think I remember hearing to RTV my pump bolt threads?

So it looks like a got a slow axle seal leak. I want top off the rear diff until I can fix this. I usually run royal purple but if it's going to leak can I use this stuff I had laying around the garage and be ok?
So the truck died again today, sucking air somewhere. Ran great for over a week then started surging again on me today. I almost think I'm sucking air from my inline filter, it's a Mr.Gasket brand I got from O'Reilly and I suspect it's not the best quality. I'm going to take it off tomorrow and...
As of right now the truck is idling smooth. Went over everything I disconnected and tightened it up. Time will tell now, fingers crossed!
