I have the same car, I just replaced my upper heater hose. it goes from hose to metal line along side the firewall. it was leaking on the metal part.

fill the car up with water or antifreeze start it up and look at all hoses and try and see a leak. it may take a while to show up. follow hoses from the water pump to the back of the car. the water pump has 2 hoses maybe more and that big belt in front of motor goes to the water pump to turn it.it also turns altenater air conditioning. but let it heat up turn on heat and look for eaks around hoses and shit.

but for you i would go to the gas station have them pressure check it. they will see you coming and more than likely rip you off. but you have to fix it or car will sieze .
