Ok I feel like an idiot but:

Noticed a coolant leak today when I got home from work. While poking around the underside of my car I noticed a small hose that wasn't connected. Turns out it's coolant reservoir inlet tube. Only problem is I seem to be too much of a novice to find where to connect it (I obviously have the side connected to the reservoir

Could someone point me in the right direction?

Oh yeah, I have a 70' chevelle w/ a 350 from a 81 C20 if that helps.

Most recovery system hoses from the radiator go to the "lid" or cover. Inside, the lid will have a hose that drops down into the coolant. The "other" hose is the overflow and comes out of the canister near the top and dumps onto the ground.

One side of the hose to the reservoir, other side to the nipple on the radiator on the fill neck (right under the cap).

Oh.. so it's hooked up right, I'm a dope... The problem then is my waterpump is going bad I think.

Check to make sure the hose doesn't have a split in it.

Looked under the engine again and traced the leak up the hose from the radiator to the water pump, thought it was just the hose at first then I saw the leak went higher and was coming from the water pump area. Bah!!!

Thanks for the help guys!
