Coolant leak

my car is leaking very bad. I went outside this morning and it was leaking all the way down the drive way. How do i know if it is the radiator or hose that is leaking?

dont use any stop leak crap, sometimes it works, sometimes it just clogs things that dont need to be clogged. Fill it full of water because water is thinner that coolant. Run it for a minute and look. Squeeze on the hoses if you have to. Should be to hard to find it.

if you did not move the car, look underneath and see where it was dripping onto the driveway, and then look above that. You should see where it is dripping from. There will probably be a drop hanging off of the hose, radiator, or water pump...

That's what will tell you where it is leaking.

Or fill it with water like said and watch it to see where the leak is coming from.

your water pump probably went. if its leaking for the passenger side behind the tire, its your water pump (thats if you have a 2.2 2200) there is a weep hole there that lets out coolant and let you know that your water pump is about to dump on you
