Turns out its leaking bottom of the core, not easy to solder so say and high chance it won't last. So leaves either re core or replace

Have an update on this. Had it pressure tested twice as just the first lad didn't actually do it and said it was knackered. Anyways on the second time of trying....
No leak!!
So just encase its only opening the split when hot I have filled with boiling water and pressurised with a foot pump and....
NOTHING
I was going to just sell this on and say there was stream coming from it, had it tested and there was no leak, but now not sure if I should re fit check if it is really leaking.
Not sure what to do now, stuck it up for sale thinking I would either get rally welds to make me a rad or I would get another koyo from ant, I was thinking more of rally welds as I have seen some of their work and it been top notch. Now I'm not so sure. Lol
