Rad repair

Post by SteveA »

Took the Roadrunner for a drive today and lifting the hood find I've got a small pin hole in the top of my radiator.The water loss is very slight,you can just see it trying to bubble through.What's the best way of repairing this?

like a plumber

not like an electronics expert

blow torch

plumbers Iron

plumbers solder and flux gotta use the flux or it won't stick.

don't heat too much area otherwise the other soldered joints will run

and obviously not the way if your tanks are glued on

Maplins are not going to be able to help on this front.
