    Why’d you get a new radiator? Is your old one leaking?

    Found this yesterday while doing some maintenance IMG_0143.jpg
    There was roughly 20-25 drops of pink spray inside the engine bay that alerted me immediately.

    System was about 4oz low.

    In your experience do these rads continue to go slowly or is it just gonna fail catastrophically?

    Shoot I think I’ve only ever seen like two tundras have leaky radiators at the shop, one being my own lol (which decided it didn’t want to leak anymore)

    if it’s a small pinhole crack it’ll generally get worse overtime till it’s shooting the water out

    Yours looks to be the seal at the body of the radiator and then the tank up top, that might stay gradual for awhile but 9/10 times it’ll always get worse
