I was loosing coolant again and noticed the coolant smell. At first I thought it was
the intake manifold gaskets again. When the car was hot I looked under the hood and noticed a very fine stream of coolant shooting out of the radiator plastic side tank just below
the inlet hose. It was a lot of work to replace the rad. I got stuck for about an hour trying to get the fan shroud off. Finally I found it was secured to the rad at the bottom with on of those damn plastic body fasteners.

All fixed and loosing no more coolant for now.
