Were the freeze plugs on the back by the Flywheel the ones you checked? Maybe a head gasket leak?
Does your engine oil look milky color?

Nope..oil looks good....head gaskets were done around summer time..i cant see the plugs but it is leaking from the drivers side where the plugs should be...but even when the car off it leaks...i topped off the radiator but it leaked about half way...once the car is warm..then it really starts to pour..im stumped
It will leak after topping it off until the level gets below the freeze plug if that is the problem. I would pop off the inspection cover for the trans try to check. It will be tough with the flexplate in the way.
I don't know where you are but did the temperature drop below freezing and did you have enough antifreeze in the coolant?
Yea...sounds like the freeze plugs...it was sitting at a buddys house..full of water most likley..if it is the problem..how hard is it to do with the motor in the car..or just pull it..
Yea...full of water..im pretty sure it popped the plugs...just dont wanna pull the motor to do it...ill pay but is it a expensive job...im pretty good with a wrench..just wanna know is it worth the pain and labor..
The water thats coming out is crystal clear...ive dealt with head gaskets..highly doubt its that...thats why theres freeze plugs right..to prevent any of that from happening...plus no white smoke neither
