I took the tranny cooling line off the radiator by unscrewing it before realizing it was a quick connect. It got bent while finagling it to thread back into the hole and now my antifreeze is pouring out the radiator side of the connection. What can I do too fix it? I have no money so chep fixes would be a dream right?

You have cross threaded the trans cooler and thats why it is leaking.

You need to fine the proper tap to attempt to re thread it. If not, you need another radiator.
