Default Anybody have a radiator for an 86na?

I have a small leak where the temp sensor screws in . I have had it for quite some time and I would like to fix it before I move in my house this summer. I have seen the new ones on ebay for about 220 but I am hoping to pick one up cheap.

Better yet do you guys have any Ideas for how to stop the leak? The copper threads are worn on the radiator.(so I cant just get a new temp sensor) I tried teflon tape. still leaks when pressurized.

I've got a nearly new 84' radiator. I'm not sure if they are the same.

I think they are the same. PM me with what you are looking for it.

How's the sealing ring? It's not the threads that hold the pressure, it's the ring: 944 106 354 00

Glen you were correct! I checked the gasket and it was torn. I bought a new one at a local " Do it Best " hardware store and put my radiator back in. It worked! no more leak! well except for the brake fluid, power steering fluid, and oil! ha!
