My radiator leaks at the very top from worn stress cracks (very tiny amount) so I ordered a new one. Here's the question. If I loosen the cap just one click, will that drop the pressure a bit so I can run the car without leaking and also without spraying coolant everywhere or is this a stupid question?

auto rad is fine, its actually beefier and can dump away more heat.
just get some sand paper and clean the area and spray it with some spray paint well to stave off rust. -------------------- |
