I have a 1992 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cierra with app.120,000 miles. Just the other day it started to squeak when I acelerated, almost like bird chirping, and then tonight another thing happened. I was idling outside of a store for abot 4 minutes, then turned the vehicle off. Next thing I know I hear a bubbling/boiling sound, opened my hood and saw that my engine coolant was EXTREMELY hot, and from where I was I could see it was somehow leaking onto the inner part of my front right tire and onto the ground, but could not see from where.....
Any information/suggestions will be greatly appreciated
thankyou

THE SQUEAKY WAS PROBABLY YOUR BELT WHENEVER YOUR WATER PUMP LOCK UP, EVENTUALLY THE WATER PUMP PULLEY STARTS TO TURN BUT THE WATER PUMP IS OUT, YOU NEED YOUR WATER PUMP REPLACE BEFORE YOU BLOW YOUR ENGINE

The water pump bearing is worn out, and starting to lock up the water pump.
In a nutshell....you need a new water pump.

it sounds like you have a leak in the radiator which is spraying coolant on one of the pulleys making it slip, the coolant is boiling because it is probably low from the leak.

Kinda sounds like your water pump is going, or has gone out...

This sounds like you have a timing problem.
The vehicle needs a tune-up.
