A family member of mine just bought a 92 Infiniti G20. We drove it home and it did fine (20 minute drive). Then we started it today and found a large puddle of coolant leaking from what looks like the crankshaft pulley.I was wondering what could be wrong and what it takes to fix it.

It could either be the radiator itself or one of the hoses...

You need to determine whether the leak is coming from the lower end of the motor, or the top if you can. If it is the water pump (lower); it's a relatively inexpensive part from the dealer, just labor intensive to change.
