Radiator replacement
« on: 30 November 2007, 15:21:53 »

am about to replace my radiator as original has got to the point where i am feed up with continually topping up header tank..it is the rad leaking as can see where it drips on driveway and bottom is starting to rust up.
What i need to know is :
the part numbers for:

 the oil cooler banjo pipe seals..think i need 4
should i replace the seal on the temp sender switch?if so is there 2 on the radiator?

appart from red anti freeze should i be expecting to find anything else required half way through the job

except water.

thanks
