How badly is it leaking?
Just damp or running out?

Hi Mursal , she's just damp , can't see water running but engine Bay Area wet after 3 hrs work yesterday .

Did you consider a sealant until you get sorted properly?

I was a sceptic as regards sealants having tried RadWeld etc but this stuff is amazing:

TEF20 radiator is still sealed after 15yrs. The new radiator I purchased because it would only be a temporary fix is still in it's box.
Has worked on lots of other radiators as well over the years. The only failure I've had was when the radiator was rubbing against the bodywork of a car due to broken mounting brackets.

If leak fix does not work then Vicary plant Simon Vicary at Husbands Bosworth Leicester might have something. There are a few breaking on ebay as well.

I was told they only do car rads or small jobs else they would have been first choice

I can vouch for Simon, bought a part off him & asked if I could collect it on May day as I was passing.....with the boat & that I ended up with him about 7:30pm, he had friends round but still came out to me, top bloke
