Ok the fan clutch belt on my 1994 Nissan hardbody pick up truck broke I was forced to drive it almost 15 miles home when I got it home I popped the hood it was pretty hot but there was no smoke coming from the motor, no bad smells, it looked normal, an I could keep my hand on the cap for a good 3 sec, but I heard something sounding like it was either boiling or draining then all of a sudden the antifreeze drained out towards the motor as if the motor was drinking it I don't know where it went, or y it did that, or even if I ran it hot. Please help me

Check coolant system for leaks with a pressure checker. It may have come out the rad overlflow so check fluid level as well

Thanks man that worked. Ok now another problem my fan clutch belt broke that goes around the water pump. I replaced with a new one that acually is made for that truck I got it from the nissan dealership. About a week later the brand new one broke as well. Do u know what would cause that belt to keep breaking. Maybe a pully or something an do you know how to go about fixing it. Im tired of going through belts. Thx

Check alignment on belts as well as maybe to tight or a pulley with sharp edge's cutting into the belt
