Coolant leak

[Nj67]

Noticed this and some dripping from elbow off bottom of h20 pump... I think thats where its coming from. Truck sat 3 hours to make that puddle. I started it and let it run for 20 mins and nothing. Took it down the road and the smell was very strong. Parked it and no dripping. Put sheet over exhaust and floored it...nothing. But resi is down about an inch. Top of motor looks ok and dry. Hoping its just the h20 pump. Anybody seen this before?? Im gonna try to post some pics but it's hard to see.

Took these about an hour after I drove down the road. No puddle under the truck or any sign of leaking more ???

I had the same problem with my 6.7 It ended up being the secondary radiator at the seam of the plastic tank. I only found it after I pressurized the system

Does anyone know what kind of coolant I can use ? I cant get any of the vc-3-b. Are their any alternatives ?

It was the water pump. Its covered under warranty and will be done today.

My truck was just diagnosed with a leaking rad, third one my dealership has seen, not sure which one, replacement covered under warranty. Also had a pulley replaced.

My dad's truck just started leaking also. It's at Ford now to replace the rear radiator because of it. About $1800 because it's now out of warranty at 44xxx miles

That's how mine started. Didn't think anything of being around shops and that kind of stuff. Then smell got progressively worse

maybe ill go home and check mine. but my truck is also lifted and programmed and deleted. is the warranty going to be voided?

Nope. You will not have a warranty anymore

All depends on your dealer. I had 40k something on the odometer with a lift tuner etc..and they covered it. You gotta be flexible yet firm with them lol. Show them your maintenance records and see how it goes.
