Re: what does this sound like?
If the water pump is spitting coolant, there's definitely something wrong with it. The problem is, you have to take it off to find out. It could be just a gasket leak, or the whole water pump is f*cked.
As far as being down on power, that sounds like a Lumina. It happens for all kinds of reasons, usually related the fuel system or ignition. Sometimes electrical problems related to bad grounds caused by corrosion.
To be honest I'm a little surprised that a Lumina that old is still alive...
