Leaking radiator troubles - RV-12iS

[Amadeus]

Fortunately it is a slow/small leak. I was able to continue flying for another six weeks with the leak. The new radiator arrived so I’m not sure how long I could’ve kept flying on the leaky one. Never an overheating problem and never lost much coolant. YMMV

Hi folks,

Is your RV-12iS radiator leaking? A little? A lot? Or totally dry?

We’ve been having an on-going issue with multiple radiators that’s pretty frustrating… just trying to see what’s going on with the rest of the community and see what fixes have been done and such.

Thanks. Fly safe!
