Would recommend. Rated by Doc on July 23, 2026
Summary: Installed radiator, filled with anti-freeze, started engine to Bild up pressure to check for leaks. Drain leaked in lower section of radiator, had to drain anti-freeze out and add plumber tape to the drain to stop the leak. Would have been nice to know that had to be done before I filled the radiator with antifreeze again, no leaks!!
