I was just wondering if anyone would be able to help me im puzzled right now.......I had a 2002 cavalier 2.2 l engine, a couple weeks ago i had noticed i was running low on coolant and the car over headed......long story short is I got it going again, and the starter went i just got the new starter on and now here is where stuff starts to go down hill. I was driving and then my low coolant light on my dash turned on along with my no gas light that also turned on. then the car over heated....... is there any reason why my dash lights are lighting up??? I have pin pointed a coolant like leak I watched it poor outta the car i just dont know where so I guess my quetstion to anyone who is willing to help is ......Why are my dash lights lighting up ???? and where could the coolant be leaking from ??? Anything help is appreceiated as Im puzzled now why the lights are on lol. Cheers. Thanks.

where does it look like the fluid is comeing from?.. hose,radiator itself, plastic sides of the radiator?..

as for the gas light.. get a fill up..youre running low on gas..

Man, to be honest it was having this problem a couple weeks ago not to the point where I could see where it was coming from. However it went into the shop and they topped it up and it was driving perfectly, then recently the starter went like a couple days ago I reinstalled the new one today and got it on the road. Then on the way back it starter to tell me that i had low coolant on my dash and then it was blowing cold air outta my vents when I had the heat on. Then my gas light came on saying I had low gas when I had a half tank.......and then the car went to 125 degrees and almost stalled at a stop sign so I had to pull over. and wait for it to cool down before I started to go again. I got it home and right away it took a whole bottle of coolant and then I let it sit for a couple hours then went out later on and it started up right fine nice and clean......got it on the road drove about a couple blocks and it stalled out on me and took a good 10 mins to fire back up from there I drove it home and its been sitting there since. Lets see what you can make outta that one Mr smart guy............ I just sorta reexplained in more detail cause I didn't think the first time was good enough......Thanks thought. Oh Ya I'm not sure if in that novel that I just wrote I said where the leak was coming from I see it coming from the clank or the hose that connects from where you rill up the coolant down to the radiator....the water pump? lol

the water pump on 2.2s I believe are right under the alternator that's where it is in my 2.2. but if its coming from the hose the replace it. When you turn on your car next see if all your pulleys are spinning around because if your water pump pulley isn't rotating you have a locked up water pump. Check to make sure your radiator doesn't have a crack in it. as for your fuel well is your pump, filter, regulator everything in your fuel system working correctly.

But seriously fill up your coolant overfill reservoir check for a leak maybe put a piece of cardboard under your car turn your car on and see where its leaking from. Oh hey when your typing on here try to slow down alittle and pay attention to what your saying it will help you better in the end.
