LeeT Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 the only purpose is to hold the intake duct down. somebody hasnt put an overly long self tapper in there have they? the leak is probably coming from the top rad pipe. change that shite spring clip for a jubilee style one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 youve probably punchered the top of the radiator (where the screw holds the air intake down). You can get that sealed with some rad sealant...worked on mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I think Imi is right, that screw is probably too long and has punchered the rad. Bit of sealant should sort it! You can get replacement screws from Toyota, they're a rip off price (like £1 each) but at least it stops things like this happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whellie Posted August 10, 2005 Author Share Posted August 10, 2005 Ive just ordered a new rad but i'll give that idea a try and see how it go's and maybe cancel the rad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
