Yeah, but for about the same cost as a brand new radiator.

Quote: Since you are just learning about radiators, start out by learning the terminology correctly......ain't no such animal as a 3 core radiator. All radiators have 1 core......the core will consist of 1, or more, rows.
Sorry I thought they were called 3 Core for some reason...

Row-Core... tomato toma-to... basically meaning an S flow across the radiator.

Negative, a rad that has a "S" flow pattern is called a double or triple pass core. The 1 core will still have 1, or more, rows. Not even the marketing/advertising depts. can get the adds right.
