91 civic radiator problem

I recently was given a 91 civic hb dx and everything seems to work fine except the coolant leaks after I turn the car off. So what I have to do is turn off the engine and turn the key so the fans stay on. Its is a real pain in the a$$. I am wondering if the fans are suppose to stay on after the engine is off? If that is the case then how come they are not staying on? I would be greatfull for any help what so ever!

how is leaving the fans on fixing the leak? They are not supposed to stay on. I would recomend fixing the leak....

I'm sorry it doesn't leak ... ....the coolant in the resvouir boils over.

either take it to a mechanic or do all the coolant system diagnosing yourself. Pressure thest the system with the car off and on. Test the thermostat, radiator cap, flush the system, etc... Heres a page about how to inspect the cooling system. It may even be a blown headgasket but without looking at your car, i couldnt tell ya.
