Awww crap this can't be good....

So, I walked into the garage this morning and....

I think the radiators cracked. The hoses look fine, the bottom one is new as of yesterday, the water pump is mostly dry, nothing fresh. It had been leaking slightly for about 2 weeks... only a little, and only while its sitting parked. Didn't leak while running. Weird.

Yeah, i forgot to tighten my hose one day in my LeMans, drove it to bloomington and lost about 1/4 of fluid!!

Actually, u may want to check to make sure the hose is on the outlet all the way
