I just changed the waterpump and thermostat due to overheating issuses. I replaced the coolant resovoir twice due to a crack on the top of the resovoir. Is there something im not doing right for this to be happening a second time?It seeps out coolant like crazy. Could it be the radiator?Confused

if water is leaking from my radiator, whatever water I pour in my radiator it comes out, do I have to replace my radiator or is there some kind of treatment I can buy from the stores

Hi annatauvaa,

If the radiator is leaking, no treatment can help.
Either the radiator has to be repaired, if possible or replaced.
