I've got a 32oz bottle of Lucas engine oil stop leak sitting here waiting to go in the CRX. Hope it stops the minor camshaft oil seal leak. After owning a British sports car, it's hard to put ANY faith in a product branded "LUCAS". Glad to hear the Lucas stuff worked on your power steering leak.
Someone from yotatech recommended Lucas and it worked for me.

Thanks Burny!
Thanks for the reply Burny, I'm new to this and I see now that you're correct, I am in the wrong forum. (Embarrassing) I hate computers!!! So you think it's the water pump? Isn't that usually in the front of the motor? There's so much blocking my view that I can't really see anything. But I think that you could be right and if so I guess I should just take it to the dealer. I just moved to this area and don't really know anyone else to take it to. Bend over, here it comes.

If you have a 10MM socket or a phillips head screw driver and some ramps, you can remove the underneath cover where the oil filter is and look up in there with a flashlight to see the water pump weep hole. Look for pink crystals and also look at radiator while under there for pink crystals. Go to ES forum and ask for recommendations on independent mechanic in CT

Burny,
I just checked the radiator fluid level, a little low, but it's definitely a pink color. I'm thinking that you're right. I really appreciate the advice, THANK YOU!!!
