I'm sure Blackarrow will chime in with his helpful info but I know my radiator has a crack in it somewhere(near upper radiator hose) so I need to remove the radiator. I think I might try to use some kind of epoxy or sealer to try and fix it. Just depends on what it really is.

I'm also thinking the water pump is leaking. I've got a puddle under the passenger side motor mount area and it's not motor oil. It basically tastes like Dex-cool but I know the motor mounts have oil in them so it could be that but not likely.

If I'm going to have to remove the radiator, I might as well do the water pump at the same time. Just was hoping there might be a write up on it somewhere on how to remove each item.

The car basically has 230,000 I think on it and if I can fix the radiator leak without having to buy a new one, that will be great because the car isn't going to last forever. When I see it leaking, it is almost as if it has a pinhole in a plastic fitting under the hose but really hard to see.
