Radiator leak
My new Dewitt aluminum radiator (two months old), has a very small leak coming out from one of the fins in the middle near the drivers side. It appears to be VERY small but it's easy to see. I had the black ice coating applied and the water/antifreeze has all but removed the coating. The radiator has worked so well that my temps never get over 190. I think some barrs stop leak should fix it but I don't want to void the warranty. FWIW, I have only used 50/50 mix of distilled water and antifreeze. Has anyone else had this experience? Thanks
