Yes, an egg can be used as a temporary fix for a radiator leak. The proteins in the egg can coagulate when heated, potentially sealing small leaks. However, this is only a short-term solution, and it's advisable to get the radiator properly repaired or replaced to prevent further issues.

Has anyone heard of putting an eggwithout its shell in a radiator to stop a leak?

Yes, that is a very old temporary fix for a radiator with a slight leak. Although it has been shown to actually work, I would not recommend it. If you have a leak, have it repaired and do not use any type stop leak. They are for emergency use only! * The egg has the potential to clog parts of the radiator, reducing it's effectiveness. As said above, the egg is for EMERGENCY and SHORT TERM use only.

How can you fix a pinhole size leak on front of a radiator?

You can buy one of several products from your local auto parts store that will stop a small leak in the front of the radiator... Now If you are mechanically inclined you can also mark where the hole is at and then drain and remove the radiator.. Once you do this you can clean the area around the pinhole and use a soldering gun and some 60/40 solder to permanantly seal the hole...

Yes you can but that is a temporary fix. Some stop leak brands do more damage than good by plugging up everything else like the radiator for example. I recommend "Barr's" brand stop leak if you are going to use one.
