I should have stayed inside; 960 radiator damaged.

[Steve (Tx)]

I thought I could quickly replace the 3 blade fan on my 960 with a new 6 blade pusher fan, so that my wife would not complain about me smelling like fuel.

As a result, I scraped the inside of the radiator with the new fan during installation.

Is there an easy repair for this or will I need to remove the hood and radiator?

Thanks in advance for any advice,

Steve

Is it leaking?Try Aluma flake if it isn't damaged to bad.

Don't you hate it when that happens?
I vote to pull the tin and get it fixed.

When cable ties holding the Honda radiator that I used to have on my 960 broke and the radiator went into the fan, a friend gave me some GM stop leak and it sealed a pretty good leak. It's not like you have to worry about it starting to leak again while you are on the interstate

pull it and fix it.

stop leak is an emergency deal.. or for a seam leak...

It is not possible to properly repair a leaking radiator core without removing the radiator.
