Vertical Radiator HELP!

If you have all the bits in the picture, nothing is missing
Can you post a picture of what you have done?

Of course I will take a picture when I am there tomorrow. Thanks for your help.

Thanks I will take a look

Loctite is the best advice here. PTFE tape isn’t meant for sealing parallel threads on things like radiator tails. Make sure you’re surfaces are clean/dry before applying.

I want to say a massive thanks to everyone on here and I am replying to help others. Not promoting any brand but I bought 'liquid PTF' from screwfix for about 6 quid, turned the rad off for 24 hours, it says 3 on the bottle and it cured both leaks. I wasn't missing any parts but as a newbie, I used PTF tape on vertical rads with bottoms feeds and as the more knowledgable guys on here said, that was the problem. Good luck to you all and thanks again
