radiator leaks after ve swap
i noticed a slight smell of coolant after the initial test drive. i popped the hood but didnt see any leaks. after every drive i took since then the smell was there at the end of the drive. yesterday i opened the throttle all the way for the first time to get around a truck that was about to side swipe me. when i got home i noticed coolant on the part of the radiator where the plastic end cap (top) meet the aluminum. i swaped the radiator today for one from a g20 (was happy to see how much thicker it was) and at the end of the day it started doing the same thing.
im starting to wonder if the w/p on the ve is too much for these radiators but i cant find anyone with the same problem. every time i rev the engine coolant comes out. i dont really want to spend the money right now on an aluminum radiator and fans, but also concerned about buying another radiator and busting that one. anybody else run in to the similar problem?
