How to fix water pump?

Leaks right under the water pumpOf my truck ford f-150

Answer:

The leaking water is telling you that the pump impellor is worn and you need a new pump. Sealed Unit, cant be repaired.
This could be a leaky gasket or the pump bearing and seal is defective. Gasket: Drain the antifreeze from your system. Remove the pump and clean both surfaces. Install a new gasket with proper compound and re install pump. You will have to top up your antifreeze properly. Defective seal/bearing Replace the water pump. Some auto parts stores will take your old pump back on exchange. the amount of money credited to you is not much but it keep the old water pump out of the landfills.
