Just installed brand new radiator after a minor fender bender. Got all the hoses and clamps installed and was excited to fill up the system with coolant and warm it up. Unfortunately as soon as I added coolant the coolant poured directly out of the bottom as fast as gravity could pull it. I mean immediately upon adding coolant 0% remained in the system. I checked all my hoses and clamps and they are all perfectly sealed and dry. Is this a bad radiator? Please help!

Thats going to be hard one for me to say where its comming from since I cant see where the coolant is leaking from. Put some water in it while watching to see where its coming from. Let me know what you find.
