I have a 96 mazda 626. The radiator seems to be leaking around the plastic tank. I was wondering whats the best way to fix it other than replacing it or having it repaired. Does any of those stop leak remedies work? like the ones from the part store.

What could be the cause?
Answer:Check the alternator. See below.
