i have a 1998 saturn sl2 i have a coolant leak i dont think it is from a hose. When i looked under the car it is coming from where the pulley is on the passenger side. what could it be? the leak is getting faster with time. havent tried anything yet because i dont know where to start... im kinda new at this

Your going to have to examine it closer with the system under pressure, probably with a mirror to pinpoint the leak. Sounds like your in the water pump area. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

If you arent sure better take it to a radiator shop.. You dont want to do more harm than good..Another note I wouldnt drive it until its fixed if that leak is getting worse then its only a matter of time before it pours out... If you cant fix it then dont mess with it...

You have to use a cooling system pressure tester. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
