Steam from engine bay MU Wizard 3.1 Auto

[LiveEvil]

So my wife drove the car (around 40 mins trip)
And when she got home there was hot steam coming from engine bay.
I am not there to check but I was wondering what I should possibly prepare for? I drove it yesterday and it was fine.

leak in the coolant system or she drove through a puddle with hot engine. Check the water level urgently refill as required and look for leaks in the radiator, hoses , or water pump. Worst cast is a cracked head. Do not drive it without checking the water first in both the overflow tank and the radiator itself

Thanks for feedback, Geeves. I think I'll be asking you questions very often. It has been 2 weeks of me owning the damn/loved Wizard and it broke twice already it seems. First time I fixed the throttle cable, this time I don't know what it is. So once I am back I ll checkit out.

Turned out it was a leak somewhere in the coolant system. Dropped it off at isuzu dealership. Hopefully that they know their stuff. Fingers crossed. If they fail to identify the issue I ll just tackle it myself.

So isuzu tried resealing the radiator which was a stupid thing to do as I was driving it today and noticed steam coming out. Would anyone know if this radiator from Trooper 91-97 is compatible with mu Wizard 97 :

No the Wizard radiator is shorter although those traders should be able to help
