Default Radiator Problem... I think!

Back again this time my radiator won't keep the coolant anti freeze in it. it happened yesterday I parked at wal mart then when I came back I found out that the coolant was leaking so I got me a leak stopper & whole new gallon of coolant and as I'm pouring it inthe coolantwas leaking like crazyfrom the bottom.
My question isIs my radiator bad? or is it the water pump?

You really need to check all of your hoses, waterpump, engine, & radiator to determine where it is leaking from... It could be any one or a number of the above areas... If it is leaking out just as fast as you are putting it in, then you've got yourself quite a leak and you should be able to determine where it is coming from.

It seems like a hose or theradiator itself because the coolant is leaking from the bottom where the hoses at I dunno!

well make sure you are at home and have a nice person run a hose to the radiator and start pouring water in it. Then you can lay down underneath it and see where it is coming from.
