Getting my 2013 Nitro XTX 1.75 ready for the riding season. Noticed a small coolant leak at the weep hole of the water pump. Maybe 2 to 3 drops at the most. No staining or other signs of a leak. Coolant wasn't low, and I have never had to add coolant before. Wondering if I should just run it. Engine hasn't turned over since April. I see the 1st step in replacing the water pump, is to remove the engine. I have to assume it's to remove 1 bolt. Any thoughts? I may just ride it and keep an eye on it.
 

Not sure if you have done anything about the drip yet, but I had to replace the seal in mine last year. I didn't want to pull the engine so I drilled a hole in the plate to get to the bolt.
