Hi everyone. I'm new here. I'll have a go at anything and am usually successful at my projects.
The boiler is fitted on a pressurised system and it is weeping somewhere meaning I have to repressurise it about every 5 days. I have removed the burner, the top access to the boiler and all the baffles to have a good look and have found wetness on the lower inside below the lowest baffle. I cannot see a hole but suspect the outer jacket area. There was a large amount of detritus (mostly like red oxide) which I have removed - about half a bucketful! Is this boiler finished or is a repair possible. would a large quantity of car radiator repair work? The boiler seems to work well and is quite efficient. We're moving soon so I'm loathe to buy a new one.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
