New Rad pipe leak

Just to let you guys know I was working on the bike and took a quick look in my radiator and noticed the fluid had dropped. I was not concerned at this point as my first thoughts were expansion tank but that was low also. So back to radiator filler cap where I noticed a slight leak on my large rad from filler cap to radiator. It was only slight and was last checked a week ago so check all your clamps especially if you purchased them from the rad people as I did. It was the only pipe I could not get my socket onto so goes to show how limp wrist-ed I is  :rollin

Be safe and check

Daz (ok unsure if its leak or leek, but no unconventionally shaped welsh onions were harmed)

[Chris]

Just to clarify, it's not a fault with the pipes, just not tightening the clips enough?

Chris

[darrsi]

Keep an eye on it, if it still appears to drop fluid you may need a Radflush.

No Chris not the pipes at this point but I will be monitoring the situation. I would have missed it if it was not for been under the tank as I noticed how damp it was around the pipe top that indicated clamp check time. Then saw a tiny amount moister tricking down the pipe. It does look tight on this one though now.

Daz

[Chris]

Always best to check things over a few days after installing new parts to make sure everything is tight and if not then just nip it up a bit.

I am in meetings rest of week so Friday I will be taking it for a run and will check it Sunday as long as I get the cars' windscreen pump sorted for its test. Out of interest what would a Rad flush do to help?

@Chris thats so true

Daz

[Chris]

I pressume Darrsi suggested the rad flush to get rid of any blockages which may cause extra pressure in the system and therefore cause things to leak but other than that I'm not sure how a rad flush would help with the problem you mentioned. Properly cleaning out the system with a good rad flush once in a while ain't a bad idea though. Tightening the clip will defiantely help if it was a bit loose though.
