87MJTIM Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 If it was leaking from the radiator, I assume you have an open system. I have a closed system. When I've heard the load "bang" it was the cap on the reservior bottle blowing off. If you have the reservior bottle, get the new cap. See Cruiser's reference to the NAPA cap.
