We have a coolant leak but not sure where the leak is. Our air conditioner only blows slightly cool air and we have to put one to two gallons of water in the reservoir each time we use it and we can hear it boiling when we stop and shut the car off. Could this be the water pump? We can see it leaking towards the back of the engine but can hear air towards the front top of the engine.

It may be a head gasket have a local mechanic pressure check it to find the leak. You may get lucky and it may only be a hose or a radiator.
