Coolant Everywhere!

[GreenSHOoo]

I picked up my car from getting the transmission shop they had just swapped a tranny into my car for me i pulled about 10 feet so one of the mechanics could take a quick look at the compressor and noticed antifreeze leaking from the front right side of the car. the mechanic told me it was the radiator so i preceded to take the radiator out of the car the tranny came from and put it in it ran fine i put coolant in it temp. was normal i drove about 5 miles to a gas station shut it off and it leaked all over the place again. Any ideas of what it might be?

Obviously the radiator wasn't the problem. You're going to have to pressurize the system and look for the real leak. Sorry bud.

Could also be boh radiators were bad; the plastic end tanks are notorious for leaking and you cannot repair them. Pressure testing is the way to find out what the deal is.
