Have a look in local motorist shop, various sealing options available.

Radweld will do as a temporary fix and can get it at most petrol stations

Try a couple of EGG WHITES, an old trick which works sometimes.

agree with neo - radweld for a small leak

if this doesn't work then drain it down while hot (be careful) so that all moisture evaporates from the hole and coat it with a dollop of araldite. refill it after 24 hours and see how it goes. at the least it should slow the leak down so that radweld can manage it.

What ever you do, dont do this

It's alright if you're stuck in the desert and have to get back to safety. but it'll cost you a fortune to have the omlette removed from your engine, radiator and heater matrix
