Default 94 ex leaking anitfreeze from right side somewhere

Not sure where it's leaking from haven't really looked too far into it been busy just figured I'd get a head start from someone online first before I get home. It's leaking pretty fast all leaked out over a day and a half. Just wondering what's some possibilities. Gonna be looking for a hose first someone said something about a thermostat. Any suggestions?

thanks for the info. By any chance you know the cost on repairing/replacing the water pump?

Ahhh that is what I thought as well but check the horse shoe shaped water hose that goes from the intake to the head. I had a pinhole leak there and it poured down the drivers side.

To check to see if your weep hole is leaking for the water pump is your oil pan wet with coolant?

Also by the seal on the water pump seal starting to let go it will allow coolant into the bearing and that can cause it to start making noise as it spins and then eventually lock up which you and no one else wants to have happen. So I would check for that sound as well.

I've come to the personal conclusion that 94 ex's hate coolant period

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

When you do the water pump do the timing belt also. Parts arround 100 labor is where they will get you at. LMK if you need someone to do it.

If you have never done a timing belt or water pump i would reccomend not to do it yourself.You might waste your motor.
