Coolant hose? Refill the resevoir with water and clean the engine. Run the engine and see if you can find one of the hoses leaking. Its a free check.

I put anti-freeze and ran it til my house but it was leaking a lot and and i mean it when i say a lot, but whyen is idle or parked there's no leaking. Also the engine gets really hot, the gauge got almost till the red zone in less than 5 minutes running the car.
