1987 22 ft Chieftan radiator issues
We recently purchased a very nice 87 22 ft Winnebago Chieftan. Yesterday the battery died and we had to get a jump,as soon as the motor turned over I watched all the antifreeze pour out onto the ground.A few hours later when I started it more fluid came pouring out of the radiator that looked like water. Only this time it was on the opposite side of where the antifreeze came out.Ten minutes later it started to overheat.
Next day I went to the local junk yard to get a radiator, right!!! It has been 24 hours,I have literally called EVERY auto parts store, EVERY mobile mechanic, searched every way I know and found NO radiator. Can anyone tell me how or where I can find a radiator? I might add a couple months ago our apartment caught fire and we lost almost everything. That is what prompted us to buy the RV. It is now our home,we live in it full time so this is a serious dilema. We are at risk of having it towed by the locale police. If we lose this RV we lose everything. Please can someone give any ideas or suggestions . We are very new to this lifestyle. Thank you.
