I have aq potential radiator leak(smell fluid and see pools of fluid) I don't have a lot of money for repairs, so what do you recommend as a temporary fix for this problem? (bar radiator sealer)

depends on where the leak is exactly..if it is indeed the radiator cracked and leaking then could try some temporary fixes such as Bar Leak, but if it's a hose then it will simply need replacing.
