Probably a hose if it's coming from the hose, however, your problem's going
to be, since it spewed all over the place, your serpentine belt. Nothing
ruins it faster than antifreeze. Make sure you wash down your engine and
get that stuff off your plastic and rubberized parts.

Subject: DML: Dak Antifreeze leak?
Hi guys,
My truck has a problem. Of course, that means I have a problem.
I noticed last night, a small puddle on the right side, behind the tire of
my truck last night, after grabbing a few things at the grocery store. (I
let it run to keep it warm)
Looked like antifreeze, so I pop the hood, and looks like it's coming from a
hose leading from the water pump. It's just a small leak, but when the
engine's running it's pressurized, and spews it all over the fan, which
spits it all over the place. Am I just wishful thinking when I say it may
just be that hose or a connection of that?
Or should I gear up to replace a water pump?
Thanks
Later,
Jon
