I have 2ft x 2ft peel and press vinyl sheets in OD green that is used for patching military parachutes. I use it on my trailer covers to patch the holes. I cut it to be several inches larger than the hole, affix it to the material, and perform the same on the other side of the cover. I've never had any issues with it. The patching material is re-enforced with a flexible screen looking grid built into each sheet.

Its overheating and blowing water out of the cap. Original had the radiator repaired when I bought it a few months ago,the guys put it in the acid tank overnight and fixed a couple leaks and tested it out as ok. since then new belts, new cap, new sender, new gauges, new thermostat, new heater core. The system has been flushed back flushed and new coolant 50/50 put in the truck Yes the cooling system was a wreck. Well driving it 20 miles the other night the gauge went to just below 240 and when we got to where we were going water was coming out of the cap. With a thermal gun checked the temps and the top of the radiator was hot the bottom was cold. Both sides of the thermostat read the same so I assume its opening. U would think flow problem right. But the petcock drains the radiator with out a problem.
Ok all you SME out there what do you think, A new radiator is $1200 bucks

It sucks when you do everything right...and you STILL have a problem.

But it happens. Sure hope you get this figured out cheap, USMCGunny.
