My mother in laws 1994 Honda accord is leaking coolant rapidly from the back side of the engine on the passenger side. It is really hard to tell from top and below where the leak originates from, engine compartment is so cramped. Any suggestions? Waterpump or coreplug?

There are a couple of thoughts. The Idle Air Control valve on the engine has some smaller hoses that could have failed and could be leaking. It is possible that the water pump is failing. That fluid leak should tend to be located on the side or rear around the belts. You might have to lift the car or put on ramps to look from underneath the vehicle to see if the source of the leak is a hose on the back side of the vehicle.
