coolant leak at upper hose connection
I Have had a slow coolant leak for several months now. a few months ago it needed topped up about a few ounces/month. Now, it's about every couple of days. I thought I had the problem solved as I found the source– the connection at the upper rad hose. So I bought a new hose and hose clamp, now it's leaking more. I can see it slowly trickling from the bottom of where the hose meets the rad but don't see any cracks. The clamp is tight.
Is the only solution a new radiator?
Can this plastic area of the rad be replaced/repaired?
