Causes of leak near radiator?
Hopefully it's a hose or bad clamp.
Otherwise the rad is probably leaking at the aluminum/plastic interface or
one of the plastic end housings is cracked.

Subject: 1982 diesel westy radiator leak?

Hi all

I've been on a road trip for a month and just noticed a slight leak
somewhere on the passenger side of the radiator. Does anyone know of
likely causes or exact locations where a leak might be?
