Bongo Fury

Hi all,
Going thru the forum topics there seems to be a general agreement that Bongos should be fitted with a coolant loss alarm and an additional temperature alarm.
Does this apply to only diesel Bongos or to petrol Bongos too?
Kind regards,
Geoff Dowson.

Purely personal choice, but a sensible idea on any vehicle with (probably) ancient hoses.

Defo V6s too. Ours was saved last week by a low coolant alarm, and at the same time the engine temp monitor/alarm confirmed that it was caught in time to prevent over-heating - see also http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... =3&t=27735

I think Bongos especially as:

1) They have a lot of plumbing, which may be getting on in years
2) A Bongo is worth more to most owners than a common, easy to replace cheaply, car.
3) A Bongo is more expensive than a simple car to repair if the head cracks etc.

gkdowson....have pm'd you

had mine fitted at last years Bash and it has saved me more than the cost of buying it already so wouldn't be without it now
