[spyder33]

I have a eclipse spyder 2.4 non turbo i was replacing my alternator and when i was trying to tighten my belts bsck up everytime i pushed on the alternator green fluid comes out i know its radiator but where is it coming from?

What do you mean every time you push on the alternator green fluid comes out? Where and how are you pushing on the alternator? And where is the green fluid coming out of?

Okay i have to adjust the alternator position in order to tighten my belt. I push down on the alternator so i can tighten my bolts to keep it in place. But as soon as i put pressure down on the alternator radiator fluid poors down. It seems to be driping on the alternator from somewhere but i cant find the location. Im curious i cant find any hose or line that has coolent running through it that is near the alternator.

i bet the coolant pipe that runs under the manifold has a bad o-ring gasket, it goes into the water pump and its just under the power steering pump.

I bet its his waterpump. Make sure you have it tightened all the way to the block. I believe the longer bolt is closest to the front of the engine.
