Leaking Antifreeze Walk out to my car this morning and a small stream of antifreeze was running out from underneath my car. This is the first time i have seen it so i figured it wouldnt hurt to drive into work and get some antifreeze on the way home later today. Car started to overheat in traffic but was nontheless fine while moving.
My question is has anybody ever experinced this. If so where was the leak coming from? And where should i start looking water pump gasket? Is there a gasket there. The thermostat housing or could it just be a hose. I havent really looked at it thats my plan after work but if someone could point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.

Yes, there is a water pump gasket. They're actually two small gaskets, as I recall. First place I usually check is the hoses, the overflow container, and the valve at the bottom of the radiator.
