Small Crack under the upper hose of Radiator (plastic section)... JB Weld???

[mge_1]

I found a small hairline crack just under the upper hose of Radiator (plastic section)... anyone use JB Weld to fix it? I've seen alot on youtube posting this product works. I guess the key is to make sure the surface is really clean before applying.

I'll try tonight and see if it works. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Drove the Yukon to work today about 60 miles round trip and so far so good. No leaks and this stuff works!!! Awesome!

I had the same thing....but I bought a new one figuring it would just be a matter of time before it left me stranded in the desert in 115 degrees.

If you're running the orange dexcool it's best to pull it now and replace that and the fluid...

My radiator needs replacing, I was told I should get an all aluminum one rather than one with the plastic tanks on the side. Only costs a little bit more, what do you guys say? Anyone have an all alu one?

Mine had the same. Jb weld worked but we replaced with a good one from amazon. Delphi i think is what it is but if not go ac delco

mine cracked in the same place. jb weld for temp fix, but I replaced mine as well. factory radiator is huge and I didn't see a need to upgrade.
