What can be done about rust on a radiator
I was looking at a diesel coach the other day and noticed rust on the bottom of the radiator. Not a lot but it was there. Does that mean a new radiator or having the current one recored?

The coach isn't mine. I was at Clark Power Services on another issue and the Bluebird was in front of me. A couple other guys were looking at it and talking about how much easier it is with a side radiator to get at the engine. It was then that the rust on the radiator was pointed out and someone said 8V92's are know to be hard on radiators.
I personally have not seen rust outside a radiator before. But I should 't have said it had a 2" to 3" strip like it was static. I should have taken picture but didn't really start thinking about it until I was on the way home.
Mine has a side radiator and I'm going to look at it when I get home. I know from what was said that a new radiator is around $4000 not including installation and fluid. Ouch!
