Default 96 jeep cherokee coolant loss

I have a 96 jeep cherokee sport 4X4 I just put a new water pump a new rad hose on a new thermostat, and performed a burb after refilling coolant. I took it for a 5 min drive and when I got back to my house I was in the process of doing a seafoam treatment when all of the sudden I started loosing my coolant fast leaking from the front right side, if ur sitting in the drivers seat. Could anybody explain this. Im thinkin too much coolant but it would recycle itself back into the resevoir. Please help before I bu
rn it.

Default Re: 96 jeep cherokee coolant loss

did you remember to close the drain on the bottom of the radiator? (would be on the drivers side of the rad)

but trying to pin point the right side of the engine, some models have a coolant sensor on the top of the cylinder head at the back of the engine, next up would be the lower radiator hose, and the drain plug...

also the waterpump housing is on that side of the block...
