On my way home from work when my 94 civics radiator cracked at the top to the left of the cap. The crack is very small but none the less fluid ofcourse was coming out. Is there something I can put over the crack and seal it back up? or do I just replace it? If I replace it wheres a good place to get a radiator? I can put it in myself

i would definately just get a new radiator

CXRacing makes pretty good radiators with slimfans for like 160$

i dont really know if autozone etc has radiators

Ebay man, you can get a brand new rad for like 35$ shipped, ofcourse it takes time to ship, I doubt you want to wait it out.

I dont have any half rads I could sell, so my advice is to get a junkyard one and wait for new ebay replacement.
