I finally bought a new radiator for my Dodge Ram as the old one has been leaking for almost a year now. So I get the new radiator in the car hook up the reservoir, PS Radiator, and ATF Radiator as it's all mounted to the main radiator.
After everything is hooked up I had my wife sit in the truck and watch the gauges just in case as I add fluid. While she was sitting there I was kneading the hoses to get the air out and heard a hissing every time I squeezed the hose... Turns out the new radiator is leaking out of the corner between some of the fins, this thing didn't even go 1 mile and it's leaking...
I should have checked it before I put it in.
