    Water leak?

     



    92 5.0 HO, carbs.

    I must have over torqued one water pump bolt. (?????used a torque wrench to specs ????) The hosuing has now started to crack. Leaks very slow.

    Can this be welded till a completed repair is possible?

    It's not the water pump housing that is cracking, but the block. Sorry for not being more specific.

    You could try working some JB weld into the crack with a pointed object along with the stopleak.
