My brand new KoyoRad radiator got a hole in it. Am I lucky or what!
Was racing, when I noticed the temp gauge was pegged at HOT (because a lot of the coolant-WaterWetter- leaked out).
Came off the track slowly, but under power.
When I got to the paddock, engine killed.
It wouldn't start, and it wouldn't push start by popping the clutch either.
Got it home. Filled radiator with water, cranked engine, located jet of water coming out of front of radiator.
IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S ABOUT TO CATCH AND START, BUT WON'T.
Pulled plugs, no fouling or wet plugs.
Can't see anything leaking under engine (other than radiator).
It's got gas.
Can excessive heat kill the spark plug coil packs?
Any ideas, anybody?
