Talking Re: What happens when you wash an Intercooler ?? Eh Bunkey?

I saw no material that looked like a leak stop, sadly leak stop would add to the insulation of the fins and retard heat transfer, a bad thing. The leaks are caused by the poor design of the heat exchanger, initial assembly problems, and the thermal stresses caused by operation, heat cycling.
