Radiator For Exmo

[Guest Mike G]

Hi Guys

Just noticed some water in the little tray built into the bottom of my Exmo rad. Not sure at present whether it is a result of over-zealous filling on my part, or a dreaded leak!

 

Assuming the worst, and also that it is not from the original Ford Sierra donor model, can anyone tell me the likely car to specify if I have to shell out for a new one? Any ideas on where to buy one?

 

Cheers

Have you cap a capture tank on it to syphon addition water/in out too?

[Guest Mike G]

No, the cap is standard pressure type, and an overflow pipe goes down towards the ground. The water I found earlier was only a spoonful & sitting in the small tray built into the base of the rad. I've mopped it up, and will keep a close watch on it for the next few journeys. I was going to attach a piccy, but camera went on strike due to a lack of AA battery power!

Check out Daves info http://hometown.aol.com/sarandrews/wateroil.htm on water here. Could be that it boiled over and leaked out there.

RHSC do the Coolman dual core for around £70 +del & It's a good radiator.

Hi.

If it's a single core rad,which I guess it is. It is probaly from a Cortina.

£35 from RHSC.
