ok i gotta 91 buick century and it was runnin fine for awhile. then i after awhile the temperature light came on, and i filled it. then one day it overheated and stalled and it looked as if some brown liquid came from the overflow tank like the coolant had came out and sprayed all over under my hood. now when i drive it, it makes a clickin noise and when i accelerate the clickin noise speeds up. when i park sometimes it will be smokin, it kind of looks like its leakin, and thats whats causein the smoke, im not sure. i was thinking about replacing the radiator and seeing if that was the problem, but im really tryin to conserve my money, see as why im drivin this car ha ha. WILL SOMEONE HELP ME!!!!

Will it click on idle. If so, try to get an ear near your water pump and listen for the sound there.

it doesnt click when its on idle it just clicks when i push on the gas...but when it does stop it does kinda sound like i can hear some kind of steam...but i think it might be from the radiator?

Man you burned that car. Overheating the car till it sprays coolant and turns brown is seriuos damage to your car. It could lead to a bad engine. You should find where it is leaking from and fix it and give the car a good coolant flush. The clicking sound could be something seriuos. It could be a rod to a bad water pump. You should get someone to check it out because it could ending up bitting you in the ass.
