I was washing the radiator with a water hose on my YM1700 the other day when it started leaking. When I took it out a lot of the fins were gone. I guess it was just rotten. It's good I have a friend that recores radiators.

By the way what air pressure should I run in the rear tires??

When I got my first Yanmar, a YM1700, a leaky radiator was only one of its problems. I took the radiator to the local radiator shop. They knew of a company, I think was in Texas, that would build an new core. The guy at the radiator shop later told me the core builder was supprised at how small a core he needed, evidently they build very large cores for big tractors, irrigation engines and so forth. I think the total bill was around $125 for the new core assembled with the old tanks.

Depending on how resourceful your local radiator shop is they should be able to find a source for custom made cores.
