Hey guys, i just found a hairline crack on the top of my radiator, on the end tank. every few hundred miles or so, a green crust forms around it. its been happening for a while, i just didnt know it was coming from a crack, so it seems. it looks more like its coming out of a real small pin hole. anyway, my concerns are pretty much how long it will hold? i put super glue on it to seal it, but i think i might regret that.

tell me what u think.

It could go at any time, you should replace it asap to prevent becoming stranded somewhere or overheating, which is detrimental to aluminum motors.

like "go" as in the endtanks blowing out ?

I mean the crack can get bigger and leak all of your coolant. You can try that radiator sealer stuff but I personally would just replace it so I would have no worries, especially with winter coming.

The endtack could possibly blow if the crack is large enough. Just replace the radiator. You can get one for about $100 shipped from http://www.radiatorbarn.com
