thanks a lot.
i agree with your analysis.

i plan to fix the radiator and then make a ride of, say, one hour.

1. in case that your guess is correct and the coolant does leak into the engine, do you thing such a ride would be dangerous to the engine?

2. in case the coolant level goes down, do you think i can routinely ride with this bike for a period of 2 weeks till i receive the new o ring?
(adding coolant each time)
please advise

thanks in advance

p.s
my english is not been perfect in one day.
i saw you don't understand me so well, so my father help me write it. hahaha (:

You really already have your answer. If you are leaking coolant into the cylinder it is not going to fix itself. It may get worse and lock the motor up. Pull it apart and fix it properly.

Ok, i just wonder how much it dangerous on 2 stroke motor.
I know its a problem on 4 stroke motor. Because it mixed with the oil.
But in 2 stroke motor, the motor is pushing out everything inside, so maybe its not so dangerous to ride with it . Till the o ring arrived from eBay.

Never-mind...
Thanks you very much guys

what do you think the problem is now?

If you ride that bike the way it is you will run out of coolant and blow your engine.

It looks like your rad is leaking from somewhere in the core but the last video is very short.

In the first videoit looks like the coolant is leaking down the rad onto the pipe.

find the highest spot where you can see coolant ad there is a good chance that is where you your leak is. liquids dont leak upwards.

Hey
First,
I don’t know what it is a rad, and i cant find it in translate.
Second.
I saw that the highest point it is leaking (and i think the only one) is from the radiator body,
But how can it be if the radiator replaced by new one?
Thanks

Are you certain it is not leaking from a hose, connection, or the filler cap? It seems unlikely that the old radiator and the new one are both leaking. Does it leak when the bike is not running?

Rad is short for radiator.

Nothing is impossible! Not even a leaking brand new radiator.

ec300 2013 11-25-2019 06:02 PM

No, it is not leaking if the bike is off.
I will look again on the connection tomorow.
