My 2000 alero had a leak but i put the stop leak stuff in it and it did alright for a lil while but now If you look under the bottom of the car you can see it pour out as fast as i out it in....Is it the pump or just a hose that needs fixed?

If it's oil leaking, you may have a leaking oil cooler line, they have compressed fittings on them and tend to leak, I seen an Aurora with the same problem. V8 engine?

LOOK FOR FUEL LEAK UNDER THE HOOD IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT.CHECK FUEL LINES.TO FUEL RAILS.AND CHECK FOR FUEL LEAKS AT FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR.LOOK UNDER CAR FROM FRONT TO REAR TO FUEL FILTER TO FUEL TANK LOOK FOR FUEL DRIPPING.IF YOU FIND NO LEAKS.YOUR EVAP CANISTER NEXT TO FUEL TANK FULL OF GAS OR EVAP CANISTER HOSES DISCONNECTED OR BROKEN.DONT DRIVE VECHICLE UNTIL YOU FIND FUEL LEAK.NOT SAFE.
the hose is under the front motor mounts, look under where you would put freon in and you should see it. its a hassle to get to without taking the fan and breather box out though.
there is no dipstick the trans is sealed, starting doing this in around 2000, they did it to stop owners from over filling and damaging trans, do u have a leak? what is the problem with the trans?
put a car jack with a board on it under the tank and then undo your tank straps and then lower it down slowly and u should b alright but id empty it in a gas jug before putting it back in cause thats a lil tougher good luck!!!
problem could be heads bolts . i put new bolts in put a little sealer on them . make sure your bolt holes is clean free from debris. put a lillte sealer on intake gasket on top and bottom where coolants travel. if all was done . drain engine oil in clean container .set it aside. take radiator cap off .you a coolant pressure rise kit .put a pan under oil pan with drain plug still off .pressure your radiator about 10 psi. make sure you have antifreeze in radiator and engine . when you pressure up to 10 psi look under the car if coolant comes out oil pan. you got leaking head gasket. if not .put oil pan plug back on . put oil back in car . check your freeze plugs also.
