about two weeks ago i had small tiny antifreeze leak so small couldn't find it, could see small amout of steam and general area but it could have been three different hoses. so i came up with the great idea of putting in some stop leak. which was made just for radiators. all cured right? well for about two weeks which brings me too tues. nite. i pulled up to the lodge and boy was she rollin out the steam. mind you it was dark, so i couldn't really see.had some antifreaze left from the last leak, put that in and after cookin at lodgeland decide to try and make it home. i made it but lost heat at about 42nd and center. well when i went out wed morn and popped the hood this is what i saw.

so of course it couldn't have been a day earlier when it was 60 degrees, nope the coldest day so freakin far. anyways i am guessing the leak stop didn't work because i had two hoses leaking. so after replacing the hoses i called a guy i work with and he talked to his pops(who is mechanic at performance toyota) and he said to make sure i have it flushed because that crap will settle in the heater core and ruin it. so took it to midas and they flushed it water six times, flushed it with cleaner once and finally with the fluid. so 160 bucks later, the lesson learned? stop leak bad.
