The resivour that holds my coolant has a delight little crack in it that causes it to steam and it gets so bad till I have to pull oovver to let it cool down by that time u can hear the water boiling from the resivour and see steam coming from it could it be that my heater core is gone bad. I used the bars leak aluminum to stop it from steaming up on the inside really don't know wat else to do?94 Chevy caprice classic ls

You will have to replace the header tank as the crack is is allowing pressure to escape and this will affect the cooling system temp, but if it is boiling, you will have to investigate this as well, have you tested for a head problem as yet?
