That day I was delivering my parents paid a visit to the home of om in the area of Bekasi. After I finished taking his hospitality Affairs back home. Surprised I see old cars that are terpakir in front of the House suffered severe bleeding, a.k.a. the water radiator leaked.
I open the hood keeps the water I checked, was still the rest of the half. I was looking for the source of the leak is not visible. Then I turn on the machine with the hopesof the water radiator circulate with taut, and then gushed through the leak. Finally there is a fountain visible from the radiator, not from the hoses or other waterways. If the leaked critical selangnya bener, for new, substituted or must find a suitable substitution of hoses. Certainly the work will be the longer and more expensive ongkosnya.
Make sure the radiator leak location important to provide additional info to the mechanics so that speed up the work, also prevent us from rogue mechanic who carelessly performing an analysis of the leakage
Next I phone my old car specialist mechanic, because based on the experience of the service if any service station held that we do not know even the increasingly messy. One hour I wait for kelokasi to get your mechanic, and they immediately went into action. Based on the report of the eyes which I pass on, they immediately dismantle the radiator and direct menambalnya. Briefly they are working about 30 minutes.Work expenses, costs of stooring 150ribu (transport to the location) of 10 USD. A mechanic told me the patch radiator is temporary, kalo ada funds better change new radiator. Turns out it really is while the car until sold, hehehe ...
Based on the mechanical, waterways common enough troublesome radiator. We recommend that you just replaced the whole cooling system engine, ranging from hoses, radiator, reservoir, and water pump. Due to its water seeking a way out of a weak pressure locations one by one turn. For example, only the radiatornya is replaced, then the water will damage the hose which is already fragile. Selangnya replaced the water will break down the water pump and so on. Each time we replace one component, the cost of work issued by the same. Our time is also running out in the workshop. So kalo we replace the entire cooling system, actually we will save you the cost of work because just pay one time and save our time to the workshop.
After I watch it turns out emergency measures to cope with the radiator is leaking quite simple really. Just enough courage and a little kenekatan.
