Side tanks leaking.
Ok so the other day I posted I was looking to replace my leaking radiator side tanks due to them leaking .so shopped around and decided on a used radiator it was cheap and a quick Install, after the install yup the used radiator leaked cooling so out she came took both to my local shop with I use for any welding needed , so they pressure check both, they both leak , this is already knew, here is what I didn't know my oe radiator was 60% clogged Wichi was causing to high pressures in the radiator and forcing coolant out of the side tank, so as I my case a rod cleaning of the coolant passages to flush out all that gunk over the years may save some of these radiators, by the way my car never ran hot, picked up the refurbished radiator and I must say she is about 5lbs lighter. Thanks to all for the advice special thanks to MEL AND SONS CONCORD CA. 85 928s3 5spd.
