What's wrong with the water pump? Is it leaking around the front bearing, or are you concerned about a build-up of scale internally? -WG

i think its a water pump b/c when it overheated a year ago one of the radiator hoses burst..i fixed that and it dont seem to be leaking but when i start it up it gets hot fast and when i tryed to add some coolant it started hissing and sputtering really back out of the radiator....it just seems like its not getting any coolant..that would cause such low power too if im not correct
