Default Radiator cap busted on me this morning!!

I hate it when you go hop in your car and your ready to go some where, and the you start smelling coolant... So i pop the hood and go take a look see. My radiatior cap had some how come loose enough that when enough pressure built up it popped off the rad neck. So, to make a long story short i had to go get a new radiator cap this morning. Now i can go do what i needed to do. End of rant...

Seems like coolant is on it's period this past week, many stories about radiators, coolant leaks, blown head gaskets, etc. I had a coolant leak this past week too.. Back on subject, good to know the smell was only due to a busted cap and nothing too expensive/serious.
