greetings:
In a 1987 245 5speed I put a new Valeo radiator in 1 year ago. about a month and a half ago i had car worked on, which included removing the radiator. today i noticed water/coolant low and the hose to overflow loose, and then saw nipple was broken ALMOST flush and the missing half was NOT in hose. Any idea of quick fix? Can I fit plastic pipe in hole and if so what size? Thoughts? I need to get a new radiator very soon otherwise. Thanks.
