How a Radiator Fails
A radiator can fail two ways: leaks and clogs. Running proper coolant mix is the preventative for both. Although it's called a "water jacket", one of the nicest things you can do for your engine and radiator is to never run just water in it! Always run at least a 50/50 mix of antifreeze with water. WARNING: Do not run pure antifreeze! Do not exceed a 75/25 mix antifreeze to water! (They used to say never exceed a 50/50, but now the antifreeze jugs say 75/25! I suspect they've watered it down!)
Food for thought: Why not run distilled water in with that antifreeze instead of tapwater? Our water here is pretty hard, and a couple of gallons of distilled water only costs a couple of bucks....

How to Repair a Truck Radiato
1.Open the hood of the truck and inspect the radiator for any punctures in the surface and/or road debris, including rocks, leaves and dirt that may cause blockages. Check the hoses for rips and/or tears. Use a pressure testing kit to check the ability of the radiator to maintain proper pressure or open the radiator and fill it, then start the engine and observe it to check for any overheating or leaks.

2.Spray the radiator with a water hose or a high-pressure air hose to clear out any debris and reveal any blockages, breaks and/or punctures. Clean the radiator surface as well as the hoses to reveal any visible damage.

3.Open the truck's radiator cap once the radiator and engine have both cooled down. Add a bottle of cooling system sealant into the truck's radiator. Cooling system sealant is available in pellet and powder form, and both versions work the same way. The sealant fills small holes by swelling into the gaps to form a seal. After adding the sealant, the truck must be driven for at least 30 minutes to warm up and give the sealant a chance to fill in holes and/or cracks.

4.Detach the truck's radiator hose after the vehicle has cooled down. Replace the hose with a new one, taking care to clean the hose connectors. Check the condition of the metal rings as well.

5.Pull off both radiator hoses and drain the radiator. Remove the radiator braces and pull the radiator from the truck. Clean and sand the broken piece on the truck's radiator, making certain to sand both sides of the break. Heat both sides with an air-free plastic welder then use the welder to melt the plastic welding rod onto the break. Press the two sides together and hold them until the welding job sets.

6.Sand the puncture area on the surface of the truck's radiator. Fill the puncture with a commercial epoxy and allow the patch job (cold weld) to set for two hours. Remount the radiator into the truck and reattach the hoses. Fill the radiator with coolant.

Radiator Maintenance
The first and most obvious radiator and cooling system maintenance is to keep coolant in the system. Ideally this is a 50/50 or up to a 75/25 mix of a good brand of antifreeze and distilled water.
In practice, dirty ditch water transported in a coke cup is better than trying to "make it home" with an empty cooling system.
