If you need a temp fix then make something.

You can get copper pipe upto a couple of inches diameter, drill some holes in it and solder in some 10-15-22mm branches for the other pipes. Do away with the radiator cap, fill it up via a branch pipe then use a gate valve or isolator valve from a central heating system.

If your looking for parts there are loads of jap breakers round manchester area, and there are quite often people breaking hijet on ebay.

Good luck,

Matt
