sounds like my first car. i had so much rust in the cooling system, it rusted through the intake manifold. left a pinhole leak that took me months to find. i eventually found it and removed the power steering pulley to access it. then i put some jb weld on the bizatch.

TRY... after you drive your car normally and park it like at home. pop the hood immediately and try to look for the leak. see if its spraying anything anywhere. try jacking up the car also and follow the leak
