    Exclamation Need Help!!

    Hey guys so I am not very car savvy Its one of the only things my father didn't teach me and today I pulled into the grocery store and when I returned to my car there was a large pool of liquid underneath I thought nothing of it but when I got home I noticed vapor rising from my hood so I opened the hood and I found that there was a crack below my radiator cap (as shown in the image below). That being said do I have to replace the entire radiator or just the hose that the cap is on?

    You need a new one no matter what you use to try and seal that. You'll spend more money in sealant and glues than to just buy a new one, or a decent pick a part radiator.
