The radiator in my '72 145 seems to have developed a leak, somewhere near the top on the back side (it's concealed by the shroud). I don't know if this will be repairable yet; anyone know of a source for replacement radiators?
Also, in the recent cold weather, I'm noticing a noise like a dry bearing--a rattling squeal-- upon startup. It's intermittant, decreases as it warms up, and will go away after about 5 minutes. The noise is quite loud, but seems to be coming from somewhere around the back of the engine; possibly louder on the right side. In or out of gear, rolling or not doesn't make any difference (although engine speed does).
Any ideas what in that area might be making this noise? It's definantly not encouraging...
