Thread: Radiator

Have you looked at the "hidden hose" under the turbo. probably first to go as it gets hot.

I haven't heard of radiators just splitting, but could happen to any plastic tank radiator. It should be pretty obvious by just looking at where the water comes from.

Get under with a torch and raincoat( probably not necessary in Katherine) fill er up with water and start her up.

Not that far back, towards the front.

Only you can see what the problem is. To see if it is the radiator, undo the panel behind the stab bar underneath. Then you can see the thermostat , hoses and radiator. It is held on by 4 x phillips head screws.

You can see better from the top if you remove the top shroud which is held on by 4x big plastic phillips head screws .

Definitely radiator, can see it pouring out, to many corrugations from earlier and finally carked it!.

so its a stress fracture Yorkie?
in the end caps or tubes?

Looks like some time to spend in Katherine! And a bit of a bummer on a Friday, too. Organize a new one from Alice Springs or even Adelaide on Greyhound Freight, perhaps?

Good luck

In your place I would order one from a specialist like Roverlord or maybe TRS and have it sent via Toll or TNT to your caravan park or pick up at depot.
I would think it would cost about $40 to air freight and road. Just a guess, but I got my fuel pipe manifold from perth to Kununurra in 2 days via Toll.
