i have a 93 yj and the radiator is leaking out of the top. It doesnt do it often but when it just sits there after i drive it then it starts to come out. this mean a new radiator or what could i do?

Does it come from the cap? Ok, You have several options here....and I would try them in order:

1. Move this question to Newbie section.
2. Shoot yourself in the foot.
3. Go to (insert auto parts store).
4. See number 2--Other foot.
5. Buy new Radiator cap.

:flipoff2:

Seriously though, where is it coming from?

it is comming from the top of the radiator where the upper hose conects. The piece the sits on top of the radiator it looks like it is slids on there under the clips. it is comming from there. not the cap.

Sounds like a new Radiator to me Might see if it can be repaired though.

radiators are cheap these days. You can get one to fit your jeep for around $100. Not worth trying to repair it.

btw. if you have a 4banger, go ahead and buy the 4.0 radiator, it mounts the same and you'll have the benefits of a larger radiator.

Guys, I think he's talking about the over flow, not the upper rad hose. If it's the small tube about the size of a straw you may be ok. Could be as simple as too much fluid. I agree, though, you should move this to the newbie tech area or flames may be headed your way

How can you guys even understand his jiberish I would take it to someone who knows what a rad. cap and hose are then have them check those first.
