Radiator Grounding Strap
#1

   
Hello All,
Well it is my turn for a radiator change due to corrosion.  Mine is atypical of many of your radiators that you all have replaced.   Mine had  leak(s) in the bottom 5% of the core.  The corroded fins are in the bottom 20% of the core.....see picture.  BTW, Richard's idea of a table/bench to work off of and to slide the radiator out is golden! 

Once exposing the core, apparently someone in years past had used non distilled water.........    

My Question;
Many have expressed the reason for the corroded cores are a result of stray electrical currents.  Is there a proper method of grounding that works?  Has there been any current source(s) identified that are problematic?

Thanks
Steve
