Anyone do this repair??

never done it though. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2004 Posts: 5,708 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2004 Posts: 5,708 | Not silver brazed... soft soldered! Big difference.  Stuart | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 54 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 54 | Soft solder, will have to look that up. It must melt at lower temp than the regular solder? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | use 50-50 acid flux solder on radiators, but if you have tubes leaking at the tank joint it needs to be redone properly or you'll be patching it the rest of yer life .... take it to a shop, they'll redo both tanks properly
