Everytime I get in my camaro the radiator lights come on. I check the fluid of the radiator (much lower than then I left it the day before) and fill it back to pull with water. Drive into town and it doesnt overheat or anything it stays in normal operating temp. Ill park and go get something to eat or see a movie to come out and see radiator fluid all over the ground. It all comes from the resevoir too. Why would my radiator resevoir being filling up and emptying leaving hardly any fluid in my radiator?

It coul d be a bad pressure cap or the radiator is overheating. Best way to chekc is let the car get warm, unplug the fans and shut the car off. Feel the radiator in different spots it should be the same temp all over. If you feel cold spots then your radiator is bad and needs replacing. If you have a radiator cap then that may need replacing. But it's a good idea to replace it anyhow. Also if your fins are loose, or greenish in color then it would be agood idea to replace the radiator.
