If this info is already posted elsewhere then my apologies, I did have a quick flick through so may have missed it!!

Can anyone confirm the biggest wheel the Probe can comfortably accommodate without any body modification? 17” I’d thought wouldn’t be a problem but I’ve seen some listings for 19”!

Secured a brand new one! I’d have repaired mine if Kits advice had worked though it would have likely been a temporary fix as the rest of it is in pretty poor shape. Gives me an excuse to give it another coolant flush

If the rad’s drain tap is leaking,
I think, if you take it out completely, there’s a rubber ‘O’ ring, that forms the seal.
Try, replacing that

That could change things! Thanks Kit, useful advice as always. Thank you

Correction…me skim reading! Not it won’t fit, he don’t have them despite the listing! Think I’ve found one though!!! Mines not that bad it’s just weeping from the drain tap but I doubt it’ll get any better and I’d rather not put a stop leak in its cooling system. As always appreciate the help though...

Second hand could be an option though I’d prefer new as I’d imagine most rads could be of an age by now. Link below, messaged seller as per listing instructions and says it’s not compatible :( https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RADIATOR-for-FORD-USA-PROBE-II-2-5-V6-24V-1994-1998-/304404408183?mkcid=16&mkevt...

Hi all,

The car’s got a slight leak on its rad but having trouble sourcing a replacement. There is a supplier showing them on EBay but it’s not compatible with my car (1995 2.5v6).

Anyone know of any suppliers or ideas on where about some to source one?

Thanks

Well the water tracking in from the rear was only part of the problem. Checked on the car today to find that the front left & right side of the headlining was soaked again so I dropped it away along the edges and found it was wettest along the door seals. Big old dehumidifier and fan heater put to t...

Second update… The wiring and washer tubing grommets are deffo letting in water, the water is travelling down the wiring and tube and running off the headlining to the front of the car! About 75% certain having gone for another look. With water being deflected away with the hatch tape, hopefully tha...

I’ll let it sit for a bit in the rain with taped up hatch see if it gets any worse in tonight’s rain. Yes a glass was professionally removed and refitted, I can see around the glass where I’ve dropped some the roof lining and trim and that looks to be water tight 🤞🏻. The car didn’t leak in this area...

I find most older cars suffer from this, my 1994 Escort is bad and my 1998 Cougar worse still yet completely dry inside, no water ingress! I picked up a sizeable second hand dehumidifier so I run this in each car for around 2hrs every 6 or so weeks during the winter and it cures the issue completely.
