But when your brand new radiator starts leaking you want to start throwing things. New items you pay good money for are not supposed to do this. Yeah I got my radiator from Superior radiator in michigan. They have an ebay store, but they are not just an ebay company. USA made it says. Well we shall see how they treat me after I called this morning letting them know what happened.

They are asking me to take some pictures and email it in. Then they will send a return packing label so they can get the radiator and take a look at it to see what's going on.

This is why some guys go straight to the big dawgs of radiator companies that are well known to have good reputations with good products and good QC. I went out on a limb for this company and this is my headache of the month. If they get me fixed up, and the product lasts, then i'm all good with this and no worries. But if they send me another bad QC product, I will ditch this sucka and "BE COOL". If ya catch my drift...

Seems to be leaking from within places I cannot see. But I also don't like the rust colored fins I'm seeing everywhere... It's aluminum for pete's sake..

I got corona bored and took a video of me flushing out the radiator as well. Cheers.
One of the main reasons I try to purchase certain items local: Time.

To get results you have to first get 'return' approval, package the item for transit (you saved that box right?), ship it to them & wait for their diag crossing your fingers the issue is properly ID'd. Then you get to wait for the repair process to be completed + transit back. Once in your posession you try it again.

What if it still doesn't work as expected?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
