I thought about doing the temporary fix as you all mentioned but don’t know how long temporary is so I just pulled a radiator at the junkyard for $40 bucks… thanks every single person for taking time to respond. i read almost every comment and enjoyed seeing how creative you all are. hopefully i get this radiator in nicely and we’re good to go. i broke it while trying to force my alternator out

GENIUS!! how did you even think of this? thanks!! probably will go the route of getting a new radiator but i’ll mess around on the old one with this hack you showed me

please explain how??
