Engine Cooling problem
1996 Saturn SC1 4 cyl Automatic 144544 miles

My car coolant light comes on to frequent. Do would I have some type of leak anywhere. I have filled the coolant tank with antifreeze, and i have tried water also. SO far water has worked the longest and the light have not come on in a couple a few days. Will this issue effect me passing the emissions test? And could you tell what i need to do to fix this problem
