Another relatively common roadside problem that can be patched up on the road is a leaky radiator. Like most roadside repairs, this will only be a temporary fix that will help you continue on the road and get to a repair shop as soon as possible. The only items that you will need are water and some eggs.
- Stop and let your car cool off. As when you do any work on a radiator, it is essential that the radiator has had time to cool down for safety.
- Refill the water.
- Start the vehicle and let it idle.
- Crack open a couple of eggs and pour into the radiator.
- The leak should be temporarily fixed. Make your way to a repair shop as soon as possible.
