Dammit!!
Replaced the lower coolant hose, but STILL losing coolant somewhere. Always all over the garage floor and coolant level keeps dropping.
Going to have to pull the fan on Saturday and try to find this new leak... or figure out why the new hose is still leaking. Old one was leaking at the lower connection... at least that is what it appeared like anyway. Hope it's just a bad radiator (replaced in 2016 by previous owner shop in VA). That is easier than hunting leaky hoses.
