We changed the water pump in our 06 Explorer and now the radiator is leaking. Not sure where we went wrong. Any suggestions?

Are you sure it is coming from the radiator? Can you see where?

Has it been overheated? If so, the radiator may now be bad from being overheated. Uhhhh, I wouldn't put anything in the cooling system other than coolant and water mix. It is much better to fix the problem rather than applying bandaids.
