Hi all,
This question is probably for the US folks. I had a serious "Aw shit" on
Monday night. I had my coolant radiator from my XS on my workshop floor and
a G clamp fell off the shelf and put a dent in one of the water tubes. The
tube isn't fractured, however it sure looks like a place that will spring a
leak. My first inclination was to just buy another one and I my still do
so, however a new one from Europa is $540 plus freight.
My question to the forum is does anyone know of a specialist welding shop
that would take a look at the core.
Another approach is for me to pressure test it for a bunch of cycles and see
if it leaks, (maybe even bead blast it and put some Redux on it to reinforce
it). Any suggestions on what pressure ? 1.2 BAR + 18,000 + 25 % ?
Thanks, Paul
