Rad weld often does, but I'd suggest BARRS Block seal. It takes 40 years in water to solidify (whereas if you leave rad-weld in the radiator it could block it), and will seal far more leaks than rad-weld. It even seals cracked heads.

Replace the radiator, anything you put in a radiator to stop a leak, can and will stop coolant flow, if it gets inside some tight places in the water jacket. As an automotive tech, and buff, i say replace.

Replace the radiator. You're risking cutting off coolant flow by using that junk and trashing the engine because you saved $100 on a radiator.

Give radweld a go first. Just remember it's not perfect and you might still need to replace the radiator.

in an emergency if you have a leaking radiator and you need to get home, crack an egg and pour it in and it will plug it to get you home.

Please dont use rad weld and such, it just blocks up the colling system.
If the radiators burst it can be recored fairly cheaply.
Most towns have somewhere that does them.
