we fixed the radiator leak by pouring sealant through,

 :shock:  :shock: i can hear the spurs from here!!!

nah,no biggie To be honest.  Ive got some very nice garage stuff, comes in a little silver packet.  You get the engine nice and hot, pour it in and it seals perfectly.  Last time i did it was on the Deawoo, 2 years down the line it still wasnt leaking.  The Rad was £250 at the time and i wasnt paying that for a car that wasnt much more than that to buy.  other optio if you are good is resin on alu rads, and if you are good enough you can actually reseal steel ones with a spot of weld, or with some plumbing solder and gauze.

rad weld is the axis of evil, its been known to clog water galleries in the engine and kill them.. avoid tbfh, id rather have a new rad any day of the year

i wont use radweld either, ive seen it clog up a waterpump.  THe stuff ive got is in a silver packet with orage writing.  The dud who gave it me said to keep it away from high performance engines though.  

I dont think anyone on here has a "High Performance" engine.

*cough* assume all u like

who knows whats under my bonnet these days, not like iv mentioned it recently.. i do also have a spare engine so anything could be going on

its not an NA flat 6 with 415bhp now is it

You have trouble controlling one at stock bhp, If I were you, Id be sensible and keep it at stock
