Hi All
My 96 Legacy GTB radiator drain tap is leaking.
Does any one know if they have a tendency to do this as they get older or
did my mechanic not tighten it properly when he services the car last week.
I have tightened it tonight and it didn't seem overly loose. It was a slow
leek so I won't know until tomorrow if its stopped.
Is this a known problem?

Cheers
Mike

There is an O-Ring on the spigot that may be gone or rotten. Remove
spigot, plug hole with something quick and check the O-ring.
