Antifreeze leaking out the bottom of my car? (repost for more opinions)?

I have a 98 Pontiac Grand Am. It wasn't overheated. I drove it for a few blocks and back home and it was spurting antifreeze out of the bottom. I let it cool down and than put more antifreeze in it but its just leaking right out. Near the back of the engine. Does anybody have any idea why it would be leaking out the backish of the engine? The radiator doesn't feel cracked as far as I can feel. Any advice?

    Does the vehicle leak whether it rather is chilly? ( such as you park it for hours, then once you place some water or antifreeze it is going out ) ? if it is going whether it rather is chilly, then it rather is not a controversy with heating / and it rather is not a small crack in some place, it extremely is a great one. How plenty does it leak? does the radiator save some water interior it or it get complete empty? as though it is going complete empty meaning there's a controversy with between the hoses below, or with the radiator, it ought to be destroy or leak from backside, or there's a destroy interior the engine area that comprise the water ( it rather is fastened via wilding or perhaps it needs to get replaced). If the vehicle kit is computerized, then you will possibly discover an oil cooler interior your radiator, verify it rather is hoses if additionally they related nicely and that they've no cracks or holes, if so, then you could desire to swap the rubber hoses.
