i bought a thermostat and was going to change it out, but it was a little too hard to get to. unless i was to take everything apart. i really dont want to take it to the shop and pay $200-$300 to get it fixed just to find out that that wasnt the problem. i was thinking it could be the water pump, what then again what if thats not the problem.

im a little tight on money but need to get it fixed. i add anti-freeze and it wont over heat for about a day but the light saying its low is still on. my check engine light is on as well.

it also looks like there is a little anti-freeze coming out from underneath one of the bolts on the passanger side....i think thats where the water pump is.

i dont know much about cars, but im willing to learn......PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!
