you say you have replaced the water temp sensor,the one at the front of the head,single wire connection.did the garage bleed the coolant system after? the (engine sensor) 2 wire connection which you mention is the fan control switch,it is a good idea to replace this,but please in my opinion use only...

at least ive got something to attack,feel im turning into steve widdowson.going to cut it up.

years ago when delivering consentrated caustic in my tanker i quickly learned that caustic attacks and in fact eats alluminium. imagine my surprise when doing tests on how to chemical flush an old sludged up but not leaking coolant radiator i poured into the removed radiator a caustic water mix, i k...

what are we on now is it 18,thats the first one ive seen that i think i may enjoy,must be my council estate upbringing!!! uuummmm! smash!


keep it up paul,

gary and tina will be on here soon shouting,stand by,
they have ducks as pets

not to bad a job,i did mine recently,all side trims,visors out,think the seat belt top mount as well, the worst bit is the rear heater vents,leave them in the headlining as they are mounted with one way push on clips,like a childs trike wheel!! remove everything else then slide the entire headlining...

they could be the answer!!you could be the test pilot on these.
there are plenty of constant pressure clips available but most of them are expensive,2 clips per hose and all that.

seriously.
did you bleed it properly after the previous leak, was the system pressure tested,any previous issues??how long did it run hot,were the fans on.

KIRSTY!!!!!

thanks dave ill stick to spanners and stuff its easier to ask

i know what you say about the cold side kirsty,i was thinking colder side
thanks for the conversion into old money! thats a relatively high temp isnt it,no wonder the clips/hoses have been working hard to seal!
hows the lecy gadget doing?

hi dont be to quick to rip the head off it.get it to someone who can check it properly for you,you may be pleasantly surprised. good luck

deffo the hot side,particularly the heater loop,both back and front heaters,also the top hose,
which makes sense as its the hottest ,after reading the above,never known a leak on the cold side,bottm hose etc.
anyone know what 40 deg f is in old money??

must mean the bike,gary and tina were on their granda/grandma best behavior all weekend,
wish i had grand parents like them when i was little

Tried one on the new rad, and it slipped on fairy easily......in fact easier than expected. 8-[[/quote] this imo seems to be another part of the problem,the internal diameter of some of these hoses are not the exact size needed for the job,but others are, cannot possibly seal correctly can they?? ev...
