My Mother has been having an issue with radiator leaking. We have refilled it several times and added anti-freeze as well. It will be fine for several weeks with no leaks at all then all of a sudden it leaks out almost everything. She has taken it to two reputable radiator repair shops and no one can seem to find out what is going on. Refilling the car with anti-freeze only to have it leak out is like pouring money down the drain. Now that spring is here and there is no chance of freezing temps would it be OK to run the car with water only in the radiator until the problem can be found?
Thanks!

Yes water is fine so long as you are CERTAIN that it will not be below freezing temperature.
