Radiator Leak

I realize this is the forced induction forum, but HMT FI users are known for their ghetto methods. ;D I have a radiator leak, I put a little hole.. 1/16th-1/8th of an inch long in my radiator between the fins.

Anyone have suggestions on how to fix it? I put JB weld on, not sure if it's going to stand the pressure.

Re:Radiator Leak

What do you mean between the fins. On one of the cores? I would just hope the jbweld works for a while. Or go get that magnasteel stuff and push it in there. Its like playdoe. Works great and is real hard when it sets it up.

Re:Radiator Leak

They have some ---- in the auto parts store, these bead things that you put into a warmed up motor. They circulate around and find where the water or whatever is leaking out, then they cool off and make the area patched.

Check 'em out.

I wouldn't trust the jb weld.
