Hi guys
My radiator I just put up is leaking at the tail piece (please see pics below). Today I drained the radiator and ensured that both tail pieces were tightly screwed in to the extent they would not turn any further. I was hoping this would have sorted the issue as there was a bit of tightening to do.
However I put the radiator back up and the leak is still there... How can I fix this? I am planning on trying again tomorrow but this time reapplying the PTFE tape or even using some plumbers mait?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
