need help with cooling system, anyone?
i havea 92 civic 4 door with a 96 ls motor, today i was sitting at the light going home and i see smoke and noticed it was anti freeze right away, i pulled over and was in the parking lot all night tring to figure out what it could be... it happened somewhere behind the block, like under the intake manifold, but couldnt see where it came from, i inspected all the hoses and couldnt find any holes, and my antifreeze is now all gone... need help anywhere else to look? besides hoses

well whenever you are free in the daytime, fill up the radiator and let it run for a while and check if you can see a visual leak.

water pump, its on the drivers side of the motor and will make it look like the leak is coming from behind the timing belt cover.
