Hi,
My wife said the battery light came on then heard a pop spraying coolant everywhere while she was idling in front of friend's house.
Took the battery to get tested and it was dead (only 8 months old). Put new battery in and turned ignition - within seconds engine shut down. Also, coolant leaking pretty bad bottom corner of passenger side of radiator. Don't see any leakage around the hose area - more at the very bottom corner of radiator but can't tell for sure without removing radiator.
Is the engine not staying on related to the massive leakage? I just changed radiator about 2 months ago are so. Any ideas? Hate to have to remove the radiator again if its some sort of connection issue.
Appreciate any advice!
