Okay so I needed to get a new radiator and I decided to come to HT to look around. I manage to find a guy selling it on here for 100.00(Fluidyne). I went ahead and bought it and installed it. My Radiator runs soo hot I can barely touch it. It smokes a fair amount. Not too sure about leaks as i'm going to go in a second to check it.

Should I just return it and buy a new Mishimoto for 140 shipped? Or am I looking at other issues now such as water pump, thermostat, head gaskets...etc etc. Any ideas or thoughts why its smoking?

 

bump for advise

 

make sure you have fluid in there. After running it did you check your coolant levels?

 

Radiator seems okay now...I'll give it a day or two more to see if anything comes up.
