Title: Leaking radiator
Post by: tjmann0 on November 27, 2016, 06:51:56 AM
I got back from a quick blast yesterday morning to find my radiator had sprung a leak any recommendations on where to get a new 1 or any companies that can do a competent recore ?

Lots on Ebay, from £25 upwards. I think the majority of 900s use the same part, with the straight exit lower spigot

How did you get on?
Asking because I just went to give mine a bit of a run, and when started, I've got a small drip at bottom corner of radiator myself now.
Stopped when it all warmed up, and reservoir etc full, so not terminal, yet, and not coming from pipes or loose clamps, so I now have to change mine too.

I have bought a 2nd hand 1 from eBay ,Quite a selection this will keep me on the road and I will then have time to find a company to recore my original

When I was in the trade we always used Serck for rad repairs. http://www.serckservicesmotorsport.co.uk/p0/repairs-recores/410956.htm

Thanks TimBox, that's only about 30 mins drive for me.
Will dig out my spare rad, and do the same as tjmann0 , and get the orig checked, if the spare is ok, and it looks good, I wont be in a rush.

Regards

Phil
