Are you sure it's water from the engine, not condensed water from the A/C unit?

(just looking for the silver lining for you)

Well that shot down my don't worry about it approch.

I think it depends on how much coolant you're losing, and if you can risk the chances of a sudden total loss.

Personally I wouldn't like to try it, but I've experianced sitting on the hard shoulder waiting for collection when your 3/4 of they way there, only to be recovered all the way back home (head failure).

DO NOT USE RADWELD!!!!!!!!! Just in case as it cloggeth up the rad to budgery. Have you tried the bottom hose on the rad as this could crack and leak, i just chop shortened mine and re-clipped it.
