Leaky radiator
My Quantum is making yellow snow... :)
While checking the reason for the flashing low-coolant light (again), I
discovered that the seam around the top tank of my radiator is leaking
considerably. My question to the net is this: Can this be repaired? I used to
work in a radiator shop (college summer job), and I don't recall any reason why
a radiator with metal tanks and an aluminum core couldn't be repaired at the
seams. Is there any reason I should just replace it anyway?
TIA.
PS: I apologize if this is a rerun. I didn't see my first post come back from
the list, so I assume it didn't make it.
