    An epoxy would have been a better option. This stuff was like a putty and didn't want to stick very well. It seeped out a little but for all intents and purposes it got the job done. I should probably pick up a thermostat and replace that while I have it drained.

        anytime radiator/hose leaks happen

        backoff the radiator cap and drive on. It takes the pressure off the system. BTW, turn off the ac also.
        Don't worry about what you can't change.
        Do the best you can with what you have.
        Be honest, even if it hurts.
