I have steam coming from a small area in my radiator. obviously has a small hole or two.

Could this be the cause of my temp gauge reading slightly higher than normal?

And, is RADWELD as good as it says or am i better off just replacing the rad?

thanks, Scott

Radweld is at most a temp fix and I wont put it in my radiator as it can make things worse.
Take the rad to a repair sho pand let them advise wether to repair or replace.

nice answer shifty same goes here if the rads leaking get it fixed. radweld is ok IF YOU ARE A MILLLION MILES FROM HOME and its a get you home job.I used it once a long time ago and it blocked the lot up, heater rad everything cost a lot of time and money to replace all the rads.
