it is probably your water pump! the coolant runs down and looks like it't off your oil pan.

same thing happend to me. and water pumps go out solw so you can get it changed b/c when it'c completely out your fucked. good time to do a timeing belt also.

How many miles is on your car? Have you ever replaced the radiator?

The radiator usualy goes out around 100k miles. Mine did. It's a common thing with Integra's.

Yeah i would change the oil, water pump, timeing belt, plugs, wires, rotar, and cap.
a good all round tune up.
and the water pump has probably never been changed before. don't let your car overheat and ruin your head.

On my teg, we had a pin hole leak on the radator. You can get some decent OE replacements from radiatorbarn.com. The tune up is probably in order was well. Good call, Bigblock-B.

If youre having the water pump done, you definetly want to do the timing belt and tensioner too. If you search around, you can find someone to do it for around 4-600 bucks. I paid $400 with parts to a guy on TI.
