Water necks leak on all of them. Use some pipe dope and tighten it pretty good and problem solved.
I dont think some pipe dope will fix the filler necks, they leak at the angle where the neck meets the base. bad epoxy was used on the insides, not my words CSR's words. There is no thread to put pipe dope on not sure if your fimilar with them or not ???
Typically filler necks dont leak, atleast not any I have purchased until this one. Not being a jerk but come on, how can I or anyone else support a company that tells customers they know they put bad epoxy in a filler neck and they wont hold up to heat and not even let ya pay them to fix it ?? Or want to get ya for 50 bucks more then jegs does for a replacement motor?

ops: I was doing three things at once when I posted my reply. For some reason I was stuck on the water pump and was thinking about the bottom radiator fitting when I said that. They all leak and that's all I had on my mind.

ops: I know what you mean about feeling burnt on a product or by product support. I've never had any issues with CSR and they are the most popular electric pump that I see being used.
