Ok let me start off by saying ,I am not very mechanically minded but i need to save a few bucks.
I have a 93, 1.9station wagon which was running great until the other day when i noticed the temp gauge going into the red.
steam began to come out of the vent on the drivers side.Anyway to cut a long story short,there was a leak in the radiator so i flushed it out put new 50/50 in and some of that leak stop stuff.
Everything seemed good on the test run,gauge was at normal.Then i turned the blower on and found myself in a sauna,steam everywhere.not only that, coolant everywhere,under my feet.
Under closer inspection i could see coolant dripping behind the radio/blower console.
Is my car ready for eternal rest ? Or can it be fixed by me or for a reasonable garage bill?
BTW radiator does not leak anymore

The heater core is leaking!
From what I here it is a big job on a escort.
