was it a bad idea to wrap a nipple in my coolant system with electrical tape for a better seal? IE will it melt?

Depends on the electrical tape. There is some really high temp shit out there which Im sure you didn't use. 3M #32 electrical tape is rated up to 108 celsius.Last edited by b*saint; 05-09-2010, 07:19 PM.Ma che cazzo state dicendo? :|Comment

try it. If it leaks, replace it. If it doesn't, sweet.Comment

well, for me i wasn't concerned about leaking as much as i was concerned about the tape melting and effing up my cooling system...Originally posted by newman View PostComment

If its rated means it can prob withstand a little more but the company isnt responsible if it doesn't.Ma che cazzo state dicendo? :|Comment
