Hello to all:

I went to fill up the other day and noticed all of my coolant running out from the car onto the ground. I was able to get her home fast, so that is a plus.

I bought a new water pump, as I assume that that is problem (the coolant was puring out of the bottom of the motor where the pump is).

I guess my question is: does this sound like the pump is bad, or is it a hose or even something else?

If the pump was bad, would all of the fluid have poured out?

Thanks.

Take out the thermostat and stick a water hose in. Get underneath the car and watch for leaks.
