Hey folks,
I have a 1990 loyale that is naturally aspirated and I am losing some coolant when I drive it. I found a couple different wet spots on the radiator fins and one underneath a bolt on top of the radiator that squirts when I drive it. The engine does not overheat, but there is a small amount of whispy white smoke coming from the wet spot on top of the radiator when I come to a stop. It started doing this a few days ago after a long trip out of town.
The radiator fins are corroded and falling apart in some places. I'm young and not super mechanically adept yet, so I want to check and see if anybody has any advice before I get a new radiator. If you know any other factors that could be causing this let me know I would really appreciate it.
Thanks guys

Hey thanks Dave. I am at high altitude but i have been topping up the coolant when I have to drive. Will that help prevent head gasket problems until the new radiator is in?
