Isuzu Repair: 97 Isuszu Rodeo, coolant leaks, coolant leak

Question
I am still trying to figure out why my coolant leaks and the radiator is fine.  I recently jacked my car up to find coolant all down the chasis.  Also it is making a bad noise while it runs, kind of like something is having a hard time catching up to the engine while it runs.  Is this internal and is it worth fixing.  158,000 miles.

Answer
Your coolant leak Matt is probably due to a bypass or return hose underneath your intake manifold or your water pump is bad. I would think the other noise ,ight be a timing belt problem and both are pretty pricy, it all depends on how much you like the car, I would do what fits you best.
