HELP po about sa hi-ace radiator!

[bogart_seph]

HELP naman po mga idol!

Our service van's,a local 1999 model Toyota Hi-ace GL(gasoline engine), orig radiator(plastic) needs to be repaired or replaced?! Yung top cover ng radiator may leak na, dun sa pipe kung saan nakakabit yung hose. Marupok na daw. When we ask a radiator shop(in cainta rizal), sabi pwede daw i-repair,papalitan nila yung ibabaw ng tanso na. So,magmomolye sila para makagawa ng top cover na tanso para dun sa radiator namin. Marami na daw sila nagawa na ganun. Marami na daw nagpagawa sa kanila.

Now, my question mga Sir is, mas-Ok ba na ipa-repair ko nalang yung radiator namin at magiging tanso na yung top cover, or mas-Ok kung bibili na lang kami ng brandnew replacement radiator(like the evercool brand ba yun?), or Orig surplus nalang? if mag buy nalang kami, where po ok at mura bumili?

according kasi sa kaibigan ko, mas-ok daw kung buy nalang ng surplus or replacement.delikado daw kasi yung pinapa-repair.lalo na kung hindi maganda yung pagkakagawa. meron kc siya kilala,ganun,muntik na masira yung makina niya, bigla nalang kc umakyat yung temp.may singaw pala.

Hoping sa mga reply niyo mga sir. ASAP po sana. We need kc our van this week. You can also txt me at #09274621332. Thanks in advance po mga sir.

my friend's LC90 Prado gas (3RZ-FE 2.7) radiator was overhauled. we are wondering why there is something leaking at the bottom, and at first I dismissed it as normal. he was paranoid so I offered to check it for him, and came a pinhole leak at the radiator. the aluminum top (twas a replacement also, IMO orig was a plastic one) was replaced by a brass top. i also recommended to change the hoses, new rad cap, new coolant, and re-oiling of the clutch fan. total damage is 3k+. we had a recent trip to Sariaya, Quezon and the Prado didn't overheated compared before (the coolant boiled and almost no water was left at the rad)

Just get a replacement one or have your current rad repaired instead of buying surplus, surplus is always a hit-and-miss scenario, plus you don't know the history of it, and there might be some clogging already happened inside which requires opening the rad, so repairing your old one would be a cheaper way.

wala po akong shop, I just love to get dirty and greasy inside the engine bay The Prado was done on a shop at Evangelista, forgot it na basta it's a couple blocks away after the bridge if you're coming from EDSA.

i checked it by simply pulling the accelerator cable so that the rad will heat up and the leak became visible
