Title: Blocked water hose and a water leak
Post by: Martin_1962 on 23 June 2009, 21:02:28

My car has failed to run on LPG since last Wednesday.

Anyway found a hose blocked so unblocked it by drilling with my through wall drill.

Loads of lumpy pink chunks came out

I need a new Vapouriser hose now.

Saw water coming from near the HBV but no sign of a leak on the HBV.

May replace the coolant bridge washers and bolts sometime.

How many times can you reuse the coolant bridge washers?

They are not supposed to be reused

why would there be lumps of pink in your coolent? Have you got a stop leak in there thats hardened because of a leak?
