I just purchased a nice 1988 Volvo 240 DL wagon. However, it has a radiator leak. I have been putting water in the radiator every morning before driving it and also every night before coming home. I would like to get this problem fixed ultimately, but I do not have the money to do this now.
A friend of mine recommended that I go to Auto Zone and buy some Radiator Stop Leak to temporarily fix the problem. But when I called a local mechanic, he said "No! It will ruin your car." So I guess my question is, what is the best temporary fix? Will stop leak damage my car? And how much should it cost to repair this problem (I live in Tennessee) so that when I do get it fixed I am not overcharged? :)
Thank you for all responses!
