Leaking Radiator

[vmax_nc]

Anyone used JB Weld to repair a radiator? Tire kicked up a rock and hit the core damaged one of the tubes.

JB Weld is good stuff, but I don't know it I'd repair a radiator with it, I personally would have it repaired professionally, if your handy, you could do a solder repair yourself...................Tom.

shame you just missed a 2005 rad going for $50 here..

But I'm sure Kyle or Sean can hook you up with a replacement at a decent price.

Take it to the local radiator shop. They should be able to solder it shut, and pressure test it for under $50. Or as stated above, if your a decent handy man, you should be able to tackle it your self. Clean it up good and solder it with a small propane torch....just be careful that you don't get it too hot and cause a leak somewhere else!

Yea think I will try and solder it, what kind of solder is the best to use?
