look. start up top, look around the lower intake gasket, then get under and take a look at the radiator and water pump and hoses.

lol thats about all u can do 1st... makes life easier if you can put the system under pressure(a tool that hooks where the rad cap goes) and then youll be able to see the actual leak. just look around the whole cooling system, pay close attention to any connections too...

Get a new rad and hoses. Park the car over nite after driving it for an hour or so... then park it and wait till morning. Look where the leaks comming from. It could be from anywhere so just take the time to find where its comming from.

Use some common sence bra! If you get a nose bleed, you aren't gonna put a bandaid on your big toe! Look to see where the leak is coming from and then fix that! If it is coming from a hose, fix the hose! Use your head! Like pro said, its not rocket science!!!
