just a few days ago my car started dying while i drive. I didnt drive it for a while because my radiator was leaking so this problem came out of nowhere. I should note that before i parked it because of the radiator leak, my battery died because i left the headlights on. ive killed my battery about 4 times before this because of the same reason. Do you guys think that the culprit is the battery? The car idles fine btw. It only dies when i'm driving

i know the st204 radiators are made with some kind of thin composite end tanks and the st205 are plastic since they're less likely to crack when rain water from the gt4 hood is diverted to pour on the end tanks (and then the fins) to improve cooling. they seem to be the same otherwise, but i'm not 100% sure. if i had to guess i'd say they're the same.
