This vlog is about fixing my Jeep Liberty Radiator Leak. The Leak is coming from the plastic part of the radiator. I use JB water weld that I bought at Canadian tire. JB weld have different types of product like for extreme heat, for steel, for plastic. Jb water weld works on, fiberglass, PVC plastic, copper, brass, iron and aluminum and can resist water, oil, gas, diesel, hydraulic fluids and other chemicals with the strength of 900PSI and can withstand 300°F. My initial try failed but after my 2nd try and pressing JB weld hard to penetrate the crack of the plastic then let it cure for 24 hours worked. This is actually done last year and no problem with the leak even after 10,000km run.

@@The-Man-Right-Chea yes it’s been almost a year no leak still but I do plan on changing the radiator if it leaks again but for now I’m good hope it stays that way until I trade it in 😅

@JimmyBoy87 I just was another guy using the JB WELD High Heat which they say is much stronger. So I'm going to try it since I'm using on a semi truck 🚛

The 2 part is a tremendously better product than the sticks.

I'm going to try this on my is300 heater core return pipe. The whole dash has to come out to replace it so I'd really like to not do that.

My ladyfriend got a leak between the top plastic tank and the crimp that holds the top onto the coils. I’ve swapped out many radiators, so like a dumbass I volunteered to change hers. Little did I know that on a ‘05 Mazda 6S (3.0L V6) the WHOLE FRONT END OF THE CAR NEEDS TO BE REMOVED TO GET THE RADIATOR OUT! Going to try the Water Weld today because @&#% that! Will update.

Is JB much stronger than metal epoxy adhesive, which is a mixture of two adhesives (hardeners)?

@GePete 3 ай бұрын

im not sure with metal epoxy adhesive cause i did not try it yet. I used water weld because of liquid/coolant in the radiator.

Ok but did you shut off the engine and check if it leaks again ?? When the engine is shut off the pressure builds up alot more than when you're reving the engine at 4000 rpm!!

@GePete 11 ай бұрын

yupp, it did not leak even the next day when i left a bucket underneath and check it.

@GePete 2 жыл бұрын

It dried up after hour but when i started to check. It still leaked. Maybe it dry outside but inside, it was contaminted with coolant. So i darined the coolant then reapply, you will see the failure with 1hour and the good result of 24 hour curing if you watch the whole video.

My leak is in the top corner on the inside where one of the tubes goes into the side. Very hard to get to on account of the cooling fins. I hope this stuff holds up because a new radiator for this thing is $200 and has to be ordered.

@GePete 2 жыл бұрын

good luck. i hope it is a plastic component. i drain all of my coolant for my second try then cure for 24hours
