So SWMBO and I are going camping leaving Saturday... Couple of days ago, came out to the truck to find a medium puddle of coolant under the truck. WTF?
says I.... Can't see any obvious leak, but it's definitely leaking. So I go by local auto parts shop, pick up some leak sealer. Seemed to fix things....
Until today. Come out to the truck after work, coolant under the bumper again. [censoredcensoredcensoredcensoredcensored]
Come home, start looking it over a little bit more... Shine a light between the radiator and the fan shroud... And hey! There's the source of the leak alright! And no wonder the sealer didn't fix it. It's right on the seam between the side tank and the fins... The metal seam has a split that at it's widest is about 1/8".... And it's probably at least 12" long...
Found an aftermarket radiator on Amazon, has good reviews, and the same radiator at the local shops is about $100 more... It'll be here Wednesday. So in addition to everything else to get ready, I now have to swap out a radiator....
Yaaaaaaaaaaay........
