Well guys,
Colman’s Mustard or not… it somehow worked this weekend on track… I deliberately say “somehow”…
After the first session the radiator started to leak again (at another place than the one I successful soldered the day before…) so I put in some more mustard powder (about 10 teaspoons to be precise). I thought I just HAD to try such an old school trick!
Well…. the leak wasn’t cured at all (at the end it was spraying out at about 1 litre per 15 minutes)… and my whole bike, boots and pants were coated in a crust of mustard…
It was only because there also was some anti-freeze in the water or I would have had a nice mustard soup!
I’ll have a go at soldering again… ;o)
