We did the same thing at first when we installed mine... this is a section of the install instructions that needs to be worked on IMO.

DAMMIT!!! I had it all ready to go and I was just putting the fan back in with the sheild and punched a hole in the radiator! (pissed)

Damn that sucks. When I installed mine I put a piece of thin cardboard to protect it.

Try JB welding the hole and it might get you around for a bit till you can buy a new one.

I'm gonna wait till Monday and take it to a shop and see if its fixable. If not I'll JB weld it until I can find/afford a new one.

I once poked a whole in my Integra's radiator about the size of a nickel. I drained the coolant. I put some JB weld on it and for 3 years it held up with out a problem.

Really? I've never used JB Weld on aluminum, but I guess it would work the same as steel. I might have to give it a shot

Yeah it'll work.

got the radiator out and snapped a pic.
Should I take it to the radiator shop here in town?
