Radiator repair
Gardner:
I took out my radiator and took it to a pro. My local radiator shop
pressure tested it, cleaned it out-- which he found and repaired a
couple of small leaks, and also soidered the filler neck. No more
leaks, and looks like new! Saved $1100..... for now.... As you may
know.. be sure if you do get it pressure tested, to be careful and
make sure they DO NOT exceed your rad cap pressure-- or you will have
many NEW leaks!
