Tony Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Gentlemen, Noticed antifreeze around the outer top lip of my '93 SuperSprint radiator. Found that it was weeping at the front. Most posts seem to be about aluminum radiators, but mine is bronze colored. Leak starts at the front and spreads around the lip slowly. Also noticed a bright green rough patch on the top, side of the radiator, underneath the metal mounting plates that fold over the top. Hoping that is external corrosion; not leaking at this point. Seems like the seam could be repaired, pretty straight forward. Anyone have this problem before or deal with such a repair? Any pitfalls or general thoughts about such a repair? Appreciate any insights, hoping for an easy fix............ Thanks, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scannon Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Any good radiator shop should be able to repair that. Problem is, finding a real radiator shop. Real ones are usually dark, dingy, smelly places in out of the way places. Most radiator shops only want to sell you a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
