Hey, I live in mississippi, and it has been extremely cold down here. I think my radiator might be busted. How can I tell. I did see some leakage from my hose. Is there anything I can pore in it like stop leak, etc.?

Has the temp got below freezing? Do you have antifreeze in it? What you need to do is pressureize the system to see where the leak is actually coming from. Chances are the hose is loose and leaking.

Let me know if you have other questions.
