radiator again
well as some of you know i tryed to flush my radiator and it didnt go good. there is a hole of some sort in my radiator but im not sure if its a plug that went missing or what?
As you see there is some kind of leak on the bottom right hand side of the radiator and is leaking like a water fossett just pouring threw. is there more than one drain plug on a 84 i dont know if this is the original radiator or not.

From your picture it sure looks like the drain plug is not in place.
Check on the ground or in the drain pan, if you use one, to see if it fell out when you loosened it.
It screws back in place if the threads are still good.
And like the previous responce says, make sure the gasket is on it.

I'm trying to determine if the water is pouring out a threaded hole?
Or a damage site.
Can you take a clearer pic with a bit more light?
