water pipe on a f22

[Juice21]

there is a pipe that is connected to the water pump on the back of an f22 under the intake manifold. my friend's cb7 has water leaking from that pipe. its not a hose he says it seems to be a type of metal pipe. its seems it is rusted very badly. anyone know the name of this pipe, where can we obtain one and how it is installed. any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's the pipe that goes from the water pump to the thermostat housing. Number 12 in this picture (I used a 1992 4dr EX as the example, you would want to use whatever model you have. It's in the "Water Pump" section). Your best bet would probably be getting it from a local junkyard.

The best way to replace it would be to
1. Drain the coolant
2. Remove the thermostat housing
3. Remove the hose that goes to the heater core, and the oil cooler hoses (if you have them)
4. Remove the bolt that holds the pipe to the block
5. You should be able to pull the old one out of the water pump housing.

Put the new O-rings on the ends of the new pipe, insert it into the hole, make sure you get it in tight enough so the O-ring will seal. Then put the bolt back in, put all the hoses back on, and then put the thermostat housing back on. It is very important to replace the O-rings on either side, and you would probably want to replace the hoses that go to the oil cooler (if you have the cooler), as well as the hose that goes to the heater core (on the water pump side of the pipe). Those hoses have a bad habit of leaking once they are disturbed, and it's such a bitch to get to them you ought to do it all at once.

If it's been a while, or you don't know if it's ever been replaced, you should replace the thermostat. It's less than $20 (I think the last one I got was $12), and you have to take all that apart anyways. Be careful of all the hoses, if they look old then you should replace them. Be sure to have another car available, cause if you crack the old hoses you won't be able to drive the car.

and don't forget to use some Hondabond on there to seal it all up once you put all the new stuff back together

Please do not bump 5 year old threads. Now people that actually need help get their threads bumped to the bottom, and I guarantee the next reply will be to the original 2010 post.

Yeah, I was like Juice21 is asking about a water pipe? Then I looked at the date of the thread.
