take it to a radiator repair place after u hear how much its gonna cost might be better to just get a new one. oh BTW never never ever put that stop leak in your van again u will clog up more then a leak. Same goes with tranny or freon stop leak worst thing they ever came up with.

now that I have this STOP LEAK in, should I take all the coolant from the car when I change the radiator? how can I dod that?
I'm goint to do myself, here its more then $150 lador to do this, I leave in Martha's Vineyard.
or just loose all the coolant from radiator and put new one and add collant and its fine?
thanks a lot TECH!!!
