Hi:

It sounds like you have a head gasket, water pump, radiator, rad hose, freeze plug or cracked block. Can you see where the water is coming out? If you loose the coolant, then the vehicle is going to run hot. Let me know if you can see where the water is coming from and I'll try to better advise you.

Thanks,
Joe
