Never use Radweld, its the worst stuff you can ever introduce your car to!
My radiator was leaking, so I suggested putting the 'el fixo cheapo' way of stopping the leak, the guy I said it to is a Fiat fanatic and he nearly punched me for even mentioning Radweld to him!

Hi
I replaced mine it`s awkward to do but not difficult,i got a complete heater system from a crash damaged sporting for a tenner(my heater blower was burnt out aswell)plus a bottle of anti-freeze and about an hour of my time,read the haynes manual twice then have a go
Good luck
Adrian

cheers, it only dripped a little bit tonight and smell goin away and heaters still workin so maybe it sealed itself?

Maybe, but that just means when it unseals itself it's going to go big time

i used to be against it, but so many punto guys have used it with no problems, i have to menshion it now

well it just another thing to fix later isnt it

Hi,
It could be the water control valve next to the heater matrix, Gaz had that problem a while ago IIRC...

Thanks
