After I got to school today one of my friends pointed out that my radiator was leaking a lot of antifreeze. I took a quick look at it and it appeared to be coming from the radiator itself. I will drive it home in half an hour and take a better look at it. (it is only one mile so I should not overheat). From my quick inspection it appeared that I was going to need to replace the radiator. I replaced my thermostat and upper radiator hose just two months ago. It was topped off on antifreeze just this past weekend. My quesion is what can I do to "quick fix" this until I have time/funds to replace it? And how much a radiator will cost me?
