thanks sleepwalker
are they the signs of it going, what temp should the car ber runnin at

there is a small drain hole underneath the water pump (feel it).

when the bearing started to get loose, the seal will allow the water to drop (maybe to reduce the heat?), and the temp will go up if your water level is not enough.

you mean...ideal temperature? 87 degrees celsius.

but it might vary between 80 to 100.
