Radweld ??

[slater1982]

Morning all.
After springing a small leak at the top of my radiator, i\'m wondering if its safe to use radweld in these engines (mine\'s an fd by the way) cos I heard a couple rumours somewhere that its not good to use it in these cars?
Any knowledge would be appreciated, cheers guys.

radweld isnt good to use in any car, stay well clear.

Only thing ive ever found to work is K seal

Not sure id be wanting to put it in an FD though

As Chris says, please dont put any radweld type product in the system other than K-Seal which we know is safe as you risk blocking up waterways in the rotor housings

Ok guys thankyou. I guess i\'ll just save pennies and gett the rad reconditioned straight away, probably the safest option eh.

If you are still running a standard radiator then I have a couple of radiators in stock that are second hand

Solution to leak in cooling system = reseal/repair part that\'s leaking. And that doesn\'t include adding a \'band aid\' in my eyes - If there\'s a hole in the rad, replace it. Cooling is vital on these cars, don\'t risk it.
