Default 96 Honda Accord Coolant Leaks

I have a 96 honda accord EX. This week I found the coolant leaked from three spots of bottom of engine under car after I filled up cold radiator and start engine to warm up. But after leaking for several minutes the coolant leaking stopped. When the engine cool down again the coolant level of coolant reservoir was very low. I think the leak area was middle of engine, not radiator area. Also the upper and lower radiator hoses were replaced last year. Does anyone has experience with this situation? Thanks a lot!

More Like The water Pump sounds Like to Me. There Is A Small Cavity Built Into The WaterPump Called A Weep Hole. When the Pump Starts to Fail The Water Will Travel Through This Hole And Run dowm The back of The engine Block On The Drivers Side. look Right Next To The Plastic Timing Cover and you will see The Hole. If You Put The Car On stands And Look To The left Of the oil filter You will see if That Is where The Antifreeze Is Coming From .

I was thinking of the heater hose since you only mentioned the lower and upper rad hoses. Good to hear you got it fixed.

I just replaced my heater hose under the dizzy. I don't see any leaks, but the temp gauge tells me otherwise. Obd reader is telling me the ev is bad but no codes or CEL.
