Radiator leak Las Vegas
We are in Las Vegas, and are experiencing a slight leak from the radiator. I would love to have a reputable mechanic take a look, and was wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a shop here that has extensive experience working on Prevost Coaches in Vegas. Any leads anyone?? Thanks!!

This is just a guess at what I would do, so don’t consider this to be necessarily the right answer. I would start by seeking local charter coach companies and asking if they do repairs, or if they can recommend radiator service. I would also ask the same question of Prevost.

My first post.. Thanks to Luvrbus and Bob…
I had a very small weap on my lower radiator core. I decided to do the JAKE upgrade service and valve adjust at the same time. The Prevost radiators consist of two brass tanks and the main rad core. With the help of my son I decided to rebuild the radiator myself with the help of a local radiator rebuilder.
I removed all the bolts and nuts. Once apart I took the main core to the radiator shop to have it boiled and rodded out. I have 250K miles on my 2003. I did have issues with the factory Prevost gaskets and needed a little help from the shop to steer me in the correct assy.
It is NOT a hard job to redo. I have $200 in my rebuilt radiator, and money well spent.
My recommendation is to seek out a industrial radiator shop. They will be able to help you. Finding good radiator shops are tough to find.

The last time I pressure tested my system looking for a leak I found an unexpected one between the center lower radiator core and the rear side tank cover. Went around and tightened all the bolts I could reach slightly and that got it.
