Well i havent had the gu for more than 4 days and the radiator is stuffed.
I noticed the surge tank hose a bit loose with a little bit of dried up coolant around the end of it so i decided to tighten the clamp and (keep in mind the engine is still running) it fell off, hose and the tube bit attached to the raditor (did i mention i got covered in hot coolant, burnt my belly, chest and left boobie), anyways now i have one stuffed radiator.
It was bogded up with a peice of steel tube in it from previous owner or there mechenic.
MR nissan wants just over $1000 for one ( im sure i didnt say the gold plated one).
Found a Adrad one for $500 pick up tomorrow, my mate said stay away from cheap ebay ones.
Anyone know if im paying to much ($500).
Also are they a straight forward remove and replace?
Any thing i should know before i start.
I will be replacing rad hoses will im there.
Cheers.
Phil.
