- also I had someone try and turn the car over while I listened to the engine and there was a ticking noise

- I've done some poking around and it is a electrical problem with the fuel pump, the fuel pump will only fire up after jump starting it with another cars battery through jumper cables and then die again once the jumper cables are taken off

- No alternator light, it just seems like the alternator isn't getting enough power and dying out but the pump itself is working fine

- Also the relay switch for the fuel pump seems like it has been burnt around the three prongs

- so the fuel pump problem was solved but now coolant is leaking when I come to a stop or when idling and it will start to overheat

- it leak from the bottommof the engine on the right side near the wheel well
What engine have you got there? Is it a 1.8 or 2.0?

- Have you experienced any kind of missing or hesitation before it died? If yes it might be either fuel or spark. It's easier to check the spark first.
However, you can put the ignition ON and listen around the fuel tank area for a rumblimng noise...that's the fuel pump. If the noise is here it means that the fuel pump can be eliminated in the process of diagnosis.

- The best way to go is to replace the relay and put in a new battery and see what happens.
Is the alternator light indicator on once the " jump start" cables are removed and is the battery up to voltage when engine stopped and key is turned off, should register 12.4 volts.
Let me know
