Driving to work on the weekend I noticed the familer sweet smell of car coolant that I knew was gonna put a dent on my wallet some way or another. I lifted the hood when I got to work and all I could see is green antifreeze all over the front of my radiator and the inside of my bumper. I left it for a few hours for the coolant to cool down so I could take off the rad cap and when I did the the rad was full of fluid so I was like ok where in the world is it leaking from. But I did notice my reservior was low so I took an empty 2 liter bottle filled my reservior with water and washed down the rad and its surroundings. I drove it home that day and while driving I was watching my temp gauge not to over heat my engine. When I got home I opened the hood and looked at the area around the rad and couldn’t see anything but a bit of coolant every where. I looked closer at the rad and and then I saw it squirt squirt squirt , my rad had a tiny little hole that was spewing coolant all over the front of my bumper. I guess it’s time for a new rad and hoses, time to jump on eBay and see what they got. I looked online and found some for a decent price but only problem is waiting 2 weeks for shipping. So today I phoned around to auto supply stores and a few radiator supply stores and managed to find an aluminum rad for a decent price. Now why did I go for aluminum well aluminum is stronger then copper, cools better and should last longer, this is good because I have big plans for this car to add a VTEC engine and a turbo. Now incase you don’t believe me that aluminum is better check out this link StockCarProducts. Once I get the rad installed I will post images and info.
