Leaking radiator.

Some of ya'll know I just bought me a 1990 5.0 mustang. Well my radiator just sprung a leak on the bottom. Have any of ya'll used the "radiator stop leak"??? or just JB welded one up?

 

............

 

Nope....

I've seen someone drop an egg (raw) in the radiator as a trail repair. Worked amazingly well to hold the fluids and get the rig back to the parking lot.

Honestly??

I would avoid using that stuff unless you're strapped for cash and can't afford to buy a new radiator and have it installed. Most radiators are easy to replace.... depending on the vehicle.

 

I have no problem replaceing the radiator...Im just having a hard time finding a used one that dosen't leak.

Im trying to be cheap for a few months so I can build my 347 stroker.

 

I've used JB Weld. Works great. Will last for awhile until you can get it replaced.
