get a professional or it will explode due to unexperienced
Firstly a water heater is a concealed unit and all joints are meant to be leak proof. Sounds like there is a leak somewhere in the water heater. Get a plumber to investigate and fix where necessary.
Check out the water pump or heater core where does it leak? DB
what would it cost to fix a leak in a 7.3l fuel heater
replace your heater hoses going into and out of the heater core. One of them is probably split.
It is not the heater core but rain water,near the hood hinge on the passenger side;they is a "cave in" area that trap water and in the middle they is a ruber plug that seem to leak. silicone fix the problem for a few day,now I'm back to square 1 and the leak is back.
Check your heater under the dash, you mAY HAVE A LEAK FROM THE HEATER CORE UNIT.
Did you ever have a coolant leak?
Take it apart to determine the cause. Only then you will be able to fix it.
You don't fix the leak on the water tower. It is not part of the island quest.
Coolant leak, possible heater core. Suggest to have it pressure tested to find leak.
I'm not sure what you mean. A drain pan protects the area below the water heater from ruin if the water heater begins to leak. You can prevent major damage by putting a water alarm ($12) in the pan to be warned if the heater begins to leak.
