So my thermostat went bad and I replace the entire water pump and had a leak from the hose going to the over flow tank so i took the fan and pump back off new gasket all 3 soft hoses where replaced. Put it back together drove it about 2 miles to tge parts store and started leaking when i turned the car off.

I see dripping from the hose under the waterpump in your 'over' vid......
Make sure the water pump is seated properly. I did this and also had a bit of an issue getting it sealed up.

I hate to say it but it looks like it's coming from the weep hole in the water pump where the seal is. A bad pump seal would leak quite a bit.
Looks like 3rd times the charm ...i hope.
Btw anyone know which sensor report ti the temp gauge?

You may have pinched one of the O-rings putting the pump back on. I know this from experience unfortunately.

Didn't look at the videos, but just wanted to pass on a tip. Use the water pump gasket that has the black bead on the paper. You may have to buy that separately. The just paper gasket that comes with the pumps sucks.
