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

sounds like the water pump to me ,and did you check the thermostat.it could be stuck,because if a motor gets too hot then it can make a noise too.

I own a 2000 Stratus. It presently has 147k on it and has been a great vehicle. lots of what you''re describing are maintenance subjects. i think you had the timing belt replaced at 100k? The water pump could have been performed on an analogous time and it in basic terms might have extra perhaps $30 to the invoice. except it quite is costing you $3 hundred a month or greater in maintenance, it quite is nonetheless greater less costly than procuring yet another vehicle and making the charge each month.

it a good possible that it is the water pump and the cheapest fix is to replace it make sure first that it is water pump and then you can go from there
