radiator

[jim_bling]

hey guys and girls, was driving normaly to pick my girlfriend up, had the blowers on cold as it was warm today, parked up where i pick her up from with the engine still running was sat there for about 10 minutes and then i noticed that there was brown water running out from under my car. So i got out to check to see where it was coming from and it was spraying out of the radiator and then the temp gauge went right up.

is there anything i can do to fix this or is it best to get my self a new radiator

any links on ebay maybe or is matt a better option

At my work we sell a product called Rad Weld (made by Wynns). Alternatively theres a product called K-Seal which does the same thing,just shake,pour and your away! No need to drain anything either
