So, I have a hairline crack on my radiator, just to the left of the cap on top. Is this fixable? Was steaming like crazy this morning and found it to be cracked... can I fiberglass it? Or do I need a new radiator... how much is the whole thing?

had this problem a year or so ago. Tried to fix it with a JB Weld patch as a few had suggested. No Luck.
Just replace the radiator. Id go aftermarket aluminum. Mishimoto, Godspeed, Koyo. At least if one of those were to crack, they can just be welded. --------------------  1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |
