make sure your plastic tanks on either side of the rad are ok and not leaking as the majority of places that recore rads use your old plastic tanks. One of my tanks started leaking a little while ago so I got a brand new ford rad, the first 2 that turned up were damaged but the 3rd was ok......or so I thought !!! had it fitted and within a few days it was leaking Cars at the garage now getting it sorted ..........I assume you get some sort of gaurentee when you buy brand new parts from ford ie. a rad !!!, can anyone confirm ?
