burst a couple of pipes not at the same time over a 2 month period, and now my radiator has sprung a leak. looks like the side of the radiator is popped open a little. I need to replace the radiator but is there something known to you guys that causes this type of thing? should I replace my water pump as well? * +

It could be a few diffrerent things. The worst case scenario would involve having to buy a new engine because the current one is too damaged to rebuild. * +

could just be a worn cooling system. I went through a radiator hose phase, all it was was fked hoses * +

Im starting to think that too. You would think the radiator cap would release any excess pressure. But I put the radiator in and it seems to be going fine. Touch wood. Thanks to all that replied. * +
