Ok, so a couple weeks ago I noticed coolant leaking a pretty good rate (actually, I didn't know it was coolant at the time). One of the biggest things I've learned about vehicles is to not let them overheat (my mom did once).
So I watched my temperature gage after I noticed the coolant and when I was stopped the temperature was creeping higher and higher, pretty close to the red. So I stopped and made Patrick come and get me.
It turns out the I had a hole in the radiator. So he replaced that. He also checked all the fluids.
Now, the temperature starts lower, but it's still running rather hot. Hotter than when this whole mess started.
