Get a flashlight and check the bottom of the water pump---- there's a hole there that allows coolant to escape when the waterpump is going bad. Also remember that the place it's dripping from may be far away from the leak itself. Water tends to find its' own path.

Probably the lower tank on the radiator. In front or back? If it's in front, it's probably the radiator. Especially if it pours out as soon as you put it in. Do a visual inspection of the water pump while you're at it. Good luck. OOPS, also check the freeze plugs in the side of the block.

If it is coming from near the engine block it could be water pump or block has a leak. radiator may leak also.

if the motor is a 3100 (3.1)or 3400 (3.4) it is probally leaking out the intake manifopld gasket. those engines use a plastic gasket with a rubber seal and after awhile the plastic cracks and leaks. you will see antifreeze under the air intake.

You can buy a special liquid that makes it so when you use a blacklight you can see where the leak is coming from so you put it in your coolant and then watch for where it comes out.

check under the carpet on the right front floor, possible heater core leak, and also check your engine oil to make sure it's not going there , [ possible head gasket leak ] !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They have plastic intake manifolds that let coolant into the engine.

your water pump is going out and when the bearing starts to go bad it will leak water out a little hole on the bottom to let ya know, also its a B*tch to fix yourself since those are sideways

water pump or freeze plug or (if you are really unlucky) cracked engine block.
