radiatior issues

so my 96 started leaking coolant. i've looked thru some of the older posts and have decided to repalce the radiator cuz thats where its leaking from. i'd like to know if anyone has ever bought one from radiatorbarn.com? and how the quality is. and should i replace the resivor as well? i dont believe the system has ever been flushed, and there seems to be a build up of gunk inside.

I can't remember if i got mine from them or not but i know i looked at them. I would recommend getting an all aluminum one if you can or something more durable than the stock/stock equivalent ones (I assume yours cracked by the upper hose where all the other ones do). I only paid 120 bucks total for mine and i didn't find a cheaper price anywhere else online at the time. Even if you don't, online stores like radiator barn are definitely all right. Just make sure they have good warranties.

I doubt you need to replace the reservoir itself. Just remove it, give it a good cleaning, and get a new cap. Might as well get new hoses, clamps while you're at it.

no need to replace the resouvier, the gunk is most likey the result a sealint additive thats Saturn puts in at the factory. a flush might not be a bad idea.
