My truck ran hot! I found a very small crack around the mouth where you pour in the fluids (radiator) I patched it with some J C wells bonding glue it lasted for 2 days then I had to repeat it!

Asked by migration_Durrango Aug 06, 2014 at 06:29 AM about the 1998 Dodge Durango SLT 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I know I have to replace the radiator !
But do u think it is my thermostat
also not working causing my truck to
over heat or the crack in the radiator
? When I park I can hear the water
bubbling in the radiator  and then
some of it comes out from the
overflow tank!   
     HELP ME PLEASE!!! I just don't
know what to do!!

Oh man I hope you didn't do more damage. Best advice I can give you is to replace the radiator and the thermostat. ADVANCED AUTO PARTS offers gr8 discounts on line.
