Hi,I had a suspected leak from my Xantia radiator, when the car was running, water was pouring from the right side (standing in front of the car) of the valance and when the thermostat opened there was a small jet of water being forced through the intercooler and out of the grill. I've took the radiator out of the car but when I pour water into it (don't have a hose) I can't find a leak, would the water have to forced through under pressure for a leak to show up? I tried K seal on the it first, but after letting the fans cut in and out 5 or 6 times it didn't stop it.
Thanks,
Fangy.

if it is just a pin hole then yes it might only show its self under presure, can you not see any sign of were the coolant had come from, no stainning or marking of any kind, if it is just a pin hole im supprised K seal didnt fix it straight away, when i used K seal the leak stopped within seconds of fitting it
