When will it stop!!!!
OMG two days ago i popped of the radiator upper hose then put it back on then it started leaking where the clamp holds (At the radiator side) spewing coolant making my belts squel and making this annoying steam when im in traffic (nothing new cause my thermostat needs to be changed got that from the dealer too) then i was at a mall today so i said il just change the hose no problem right?? Wrong i put the hose on the wrong way so i was trying to pull it off then guess what ?? I pulled on it off then it popped and the momentum made me jerk back then i looked after i caught my balance OMG i broke the nipple that goes to the water bottle.then it was giving my alternator a coolant bath had my battery light on in the car im in traffic the smoke will not stop!!! got home picked the hood up it looks like i busted a hose with amount coolant on my alternator jeez gime a break!!! what next?? and stuff like this only happen when i got a crap load of bills to pay Do you think i need a new radiator?? what glue will fix this?? The alternator still works but when its dry

nipple gone.. no way to fix it without the risk of it breaking again. do what i did and get a koyo. and while you are at it, replace all your heater hoses that go under the IM because those will bust too, if they have not yet.

My bottom hose kept popping off, happened right in front of Queens center mall too (Mall + NX = radiator hose popping off) lol but whatever it broke so I got one from down the street for $14. No big deal man just take it easy

I try its just a bit frustrating when things happen as soon as you get some spare cash in your hands (Sold my B14) I said F it closed my eyes span around three times and paid my car note for my 300zx (I bought it from my cousins husband) I rather get rid of bills first.Last night the battery light in the car was faintly on (Got soaked with coolant) it was like that all night cured it today by having the motor running and poured water into the alternator She fine now im iso a Koyo radiator and a decent priced VE motor to go with itbut one thing at a time right??
