Title: Radiator help required
Post by mattyboy on May 12^th, 2005, 7:23pm

Hi all,
I think I already know the answer to this question but here goes.
Are the radiators on scorpios the same?
The radiator on my Cosworth has sprung a leak and I've noticed Scorpio Jack has three on eBay but they're for 2.0 and 2.3 s.
The thing is I've sold the car and the chap is coming to collect it on saturday so I need one pretty sharpish

Cheers,

Matthew

you can get a recore at j.j radiators liverpool which is too far for a £115.00 and no more problems be careful it does not pressurise cos of the leak or it could be expensive........................

as Andy says the cossie rad is a different core and it HAS to be the correct one .. some people try other Scorp models but it will not last ..also has to have the top rad to header tank return hose fitment .. careful with reconditioners ..as even they make the mistake of recoring Cossies with the wrong core sometimes....regards ...STN
