Re: Upgrading the coolant and AC fans

I guess you could try and find a bigger fan in terms of rpm than the factory one

If I was looking to spend money in that area I’d probably see if there was a bigger radiator that could be fitted

Re: Breakdown after leaving coolant cap off - what now?

Ok, I watched a vid on that before and it didn't look too tricky, shall watch again now. Is it likely to be a problem that we jump started it last night and revved it gently for 10/20 seconds. Sorry if it's a silly question . Was it a bongo specific video or a generic car one, go careful if generic
