Help identifying coolant leak after t-belt job

[jonah111]

It's been a couple weeks since I did the timing belt job and the coolant is down about 12 oz. I can see coolant on the water inlet housing. I wiped it off and it was back in the same spot after a couple hours of driving. Do I need a new inlet housing?

I MAY have pried on this area to get the housing off during the timing belt job......

You probably pried it and bungled it. Take it off and see

I see what's wrong,,, it's bleeding green... YUK...LOL

I've never had that off. If a gasket was in there, call a Toyota parts counter and get one ordered. If it was glued/sealed, then use 1282B FIPG to reseal it. Which is same FIPG that should have been used where inlet housing fit to water pump.

Finally found someone with my same problem.. Hey OP, you remember if the connection had a gasket or just FIPG? Also, what did you torque it to when reassembling?

No gasket in there. FIPG only.
