Hi my radiator has 3 holes in the cooling tubes. Does anyone know if an 89 corolla radiator (from 2L car) would fit my 85. If not, how are these repaired, can it be done! TIA

Generally they are re-cored, the top and bottom tanks are removed. and re-fitted to a new core. My commercial vehicle cost around $400 to have this done. Try contacting Silverdale Radiators (they sell on here) they may give you a good deal on a new one, couriered to you. Make sure any second hand radiator you get is rodded out by a radiator specialist first, especially one that old, otherwise it may be clogged which could lead to overheating issues

Just get a good, second hand one from a wrecker. It's only an old Corolla, no point buying a radiator that costs as much as the car is worth.
