Default radiator question

i recently fixed my fitv , and after i had it back on i noticed i was leaking antifreeze towards the back of the motor . well i found out it was one of the two lines coming from the fitv had cracked , so i replaced both of them solved the problem .

Since then ive drove it 3 times , and today went out to check on my rex and opened the hood and noticed coolant pooled at the bottom of the radiator and along the top . I then took the rad. cap off and noticed it was low . The coolant on the top might have been from me filling it but def. not the coolant at the bottom .Ichecked the fitv lines there not leaking .

So i think my radiator is bad didnt look around alot bc its really cold out but i was thinking about getting some of that stuff bars leak that stops radiator leaks . I also priced some new raditors not to bad in price .

Now for what im not sure about. I have a 1990 crx si with a b18a1 would i buy and would it fit : an integra radiator or the si one ? .I priced some after market ones like fluidyne but just to expensive for me right now . thanks for the info

If you didn't have any overheating problems with the radiator you had in there then just get a replacement. No need for a fluidyne unless you really have cooling problems or if you are a bling-bling ***** and just like to spend money.

NP - I actually hate the search here.
It normally brings up all kinds of garbage that has nothing to do with what I want to know about.
