Bruno:

Which engine do you have? Your leak could be a heater hose, and intake gasket, a freeze plug, even a head gasket.

How many miles on it?

Its not the intake manifold gasket - the manifolds on these engines don't have coolant running through them.

I'd lean more towards a cylinder head gasket or freeze plug failure. By your description of coolant pouring out, I'd suspect something is amiss with the cylinder head (freeze plug or a seriously cracked head). Is there coolant in the engine oil?
