well this morning i put anitfreeze in my car and now its all leaking out of the driver side of my motor :cry: during the summer i had a small leak by the turbo so i only was putting water in it but it never leaked from that and its not really a little leak from the motor its more like its pouring out!!!WTF.....anyone have any clue what it could be possibly water pump, but no cooling issues. :beatentodeath:

so im pretty sure it is the water pump ### its been sitting in my drive way for like 10 min and its still leaking but i'm not sure....
 
yea i would say water pump too. it's the only thing i could think of on the driver side that has coolant. Yet i don't have a 91 so i know u must a have a water type oil cooler that goes to the oil filter housing and i don't know where those hoses come from. So yea i'd say waterpump.
 
Take your timing covers off and have a look. Make sure to not let it overheat. If it's just coolant, it will unlikely be oil cooler.

Might be a chance to change all your timing components if it's about that time.
