Climb under the vehicle and try to find out where it's leaking from. Look closely at the water pump and try to see if there is a trace of antifreeze from the water pump pulley. If that's it, replace the water pump. If that's not it, you may find that it's as simple as a leaky radiator or radiator hose.

1995 Ford F-350 why is it running hot theres no coolant in the storage container and when you check the radiator cap coolant shoots out like a fire hydrant?
you need to check coolant while the truck is cold. This willstop the cap from flying off and coolant from spewing everywhere. Check to make sure the coolant is full, your thermostat could probably be replaced very cheap and easy. Also its probably a good time to check your hoses to make sure they are in good shape. If none of this works make sure that your water pump isn't leaking and that its working.
Why would my1990 Pontiac fire-bird leak coolant while i pour it in radiator when its not running?
Because the cooling system is compromised somewhere, and that's allowing the coolant to leak out. The radiator could be punctured, a coolant line could be cut, a hose clamp could be loose or broken. Worst case scenario, the water jacket itself could be compromised.
