After som small modifications the water is circulating fine. can feel the heat in the radiator up front.

But its still leaking from the pump.
Theory: All waterpumps has a drain hole to drain out internal leak. this is to prevent the bearings to seize and the cam belt to shear.(major disaster)
I think my pump is leaking from this hole =its busted.
The most common thing that causes internal leak is running the engine without water. wich i did several times. so i busted the pump myself.(stupid)

Advice: NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER RUN YOUR ENGINE WITHOUT COOLANT. YOU WIL DESTROY YOUR WATERPUMP IN SECONDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
