Hello first post and thanks for having me on here !!
I recently purchased my dream motor and over the moon about it
i have a few q's so would be grateful for any help
ps im not a wizard of mechanics so you may have to idiot guide me..

She has a heavy leak, and also the air cooling system/ radiator is completlely cream crackered. The leak seems to be coming from head gasket area..

So i gave the area a clean up and looks to be definitely coming from the gasket on the right hand side of the engine which is dripping down and causing a mess everywhere underneath.

1.do i replace radiator before i even bother with the gasket?

2.removed top lid and check to see if the any damage to the rubbers have occured and replace.

3.use head gasket sealer and is it going to damage the engine if i use it???????

Any advice will be greatly appreciated

:welcome: Luke, detailed questions are best asked in the appropriate section and it would be a good idea to say what engine you have

Welcome to the loonyzone, Luke! :)

You will have to post that in the Defender 90/110/ forum. And people cant help unless you tell them what age and engine you have.

With the head leak, it would be very helpful if you could post some pictures of the leak as well.

Top lid of what? :confused:
