Couldn't find Water Wetter anywhere. The plan is to swap out the regular coolant with Engine Ice later today. I cleaned out the rad yesterday and couldn't see any swelling, but I'll take a closer look today. What will a new rad cost me if that's the problem (ballpark)?

Ya the original problem may have been a lack of coolant. At any rate, the engine ice is in now, and so far no issues.

Prestone makes engine ice as well, of coarse they call it LowTox pet friendly. They also make evans waterless coolant it is called Prestone Command. Or you could just buy Prestones Xtreme sport antifreeze. For additives instead of waterwetter amsoil makes a better one called dominator coolant boost. Or filling the reservoir works too. Some manufactures support the sport, prestone would not be one of them.
