I'm putting a new radiator in my starlet and I have one that fits perfect and has way more surface area than the pos one I have now. What I want to know is what tests can I do on the radiator to make sure its ok?
Cheers

Just hook it up to a hose or something and block off one end and see if there are any leaks.
What did you think he means by pressure test?
