ok, i have a pin hole in my radiator from my front tire rubbing on it....i've tried jb weld, that hasn't held, any other suggestions????

 

radiator leak repair. I would drain radiator before applying, and let sit overnight.

 

see, if i have to take it off, i might as well just put my back up good one on....i'm just trying to take the lazy way out of this:-)

 

i think JB weld would hold it if you figured out a way to stop the antifreeze from dripping out while its drying... I dont see anyway around taking it off, but if JB weld will keep gas in the tank, im sure it will hold back antifreeze...

 

JB qwik--It comes in a stick-you knead it like dough--dries in 3 minutes cures in 1 hour--I had a pin hole in the radiator on my 636 a week ago and the JB qwik sealed it perfect--no leaks--

SWEET, i'm going to the hardware store now.

 

MOOSE QUICKSTEEL EPOXY....I HAVE SOME AT WORK I CAN GIVE YOU....I'LL SPONSOR YOU

 

JB Quick also comes in 2 tubes. Might try that with a scrap piece of sheet metal if the kneadable JB weld/ epoxy doesn't work.

 

^ good idea... :YEAH

 

Ryan just dont use radiator stop leak. That **** will **** up a lot of the cooling system on your bike. Its hard on the seals and all that ****

 

At first the JB Qwik might not stick when you first apply it so--in this case press that shiit in as much as you can-it'll stay-this is why I love this stuff--I'll never buy jb weld ever again.

simple fix: pepper.

put a couple of tablespoons in the radiator while it is running...the pepper will find the leak and plug it...i've done this a bunch of times

 

with JB qwik, i used a hair-dryer to make sure the stuff gets nice and warm (so the reaction will fully take place in 3-5 mins). Watch out about getting it too hot while its drying though, because it is almost sticky like bubble gum when alot of heat is until it is fully dried...

Teach, you serious about the pepper?

 

i have heard about the pepper idea as well, i just question whether it plugs other things in the motor, such as the water jacket?????

the jb is drying as we speak:-)

 

this **** has to dry faster, it's 31 degrees out and the snow's comin....i want to ride today LOL

 

pepper is no joke...at one point in time i had 3 bikes running on it!!

never caused me any probs

 

Course Ground Or Fine? Lol

 

OMG! teach has an av again!

 

STILL has a small leak someplace...i'm gonna take teach's advice and throw some pepppppa in there!!!

 

Thats the Godzilla of all Problems !
