Coolant Leak
Hey guys, I have a coolant leak at the front of the engine right behind the idler pulley (or bottom pulley on the front of the motor). The serp-belt appears good and tight although it looks like it's trying to pop off when running. I can actually see it not staying on. Makes a nasty noise as well. HELP !!! Water pump going out ? It was a little low on water. It's clearly leaking fluid. I can't really tell if anything is loose. All appears tight. Something is wrong for sure...
What course of action should I take ? What does it seem like is going wrong or about to ?
Thanks for any replies !

right below that idler pulley is the water pump. tug on the fan, up and down, see if it moves. either its leaking from the shaft, or the gasket gave. my bet is the pump is starting to go. give ya a heads up. how many miles btw? next time you come with a question, make your signature your vehicle list ( year, engine, trans, 2wd/4wd?, etc).
