I just get out of work happy to go fix my car today when while i was driving i notice that my temp guage was maxing out. I was suppirzed i didnt do anything my car was parked outside and it wasnt that hot outside. Then smoke started leaking out so i stop the car and find a crack on the top portion facing the front of the car. It likes on the complete oposite side of the radiator hose on the front of the radiotor on the plastic black top.. i saw the crack so i started to push it hopefully to put it together. I was using my car key and boom a small hole the side of the key sideways pops in and now i have a small 2mm by 4mm hole and the crack that goes along with it. I mean now im pissed cuz i cant drive my car unless there is a small fix i can do to use the car for a while or i guess imma have to get a new radiator, can anyone help me out???
