If the screw hasnt cracked the valve, then you may be ok with a new one. If the valve is cracked, you will most likely need a new radiator. Fucking brilliant engineering. A 2 dollar screw can crack the valve and render a perfectly good core uselss. |

It's not the screw which breaks the valve, but the nut turning it... |
