the water comes out. I checked and i cant tell whats going on, so I
thought maybe the water is being regected it might be the radiater stoped
up or the waterpump. Can anyone help me at all. Thanks in advance.

*sigh*

is there a pool of water under the car? if there is you have a leak
in the cooloing sytem. have a look around and see where its comming
from. that will tell you if its the rad, a hose, the pump or something
else.

if no pool of water *BUT* you still losing water from clooling system,
then you may have a cracked block/hear/blown head gasket... all of
those things are serious/expensive especially for that age of vehicle.
