Antifreeze leaking out the bottom of my car?
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?

Coolant pouring out of the back of the engine may mean that a freeze plug has failed. (Certainly a possibility on a car that old.) That will be an expensive repair.
Another possibility is that a heater hose has failed. Hope for that one: cheap fix.

IT COULD BE YOUR WATER PUMP, IF SO IT WILL NEED REPLACING.
IT COULD BE A HOSE, CHECK THE RADIATOR AND ENGINE HOSES, MAKE SURE THERE CONNECTED CORRECTLY...
