Title: Another HBV!!!
Post by: Lazydocker on 18 June 2008, 22:51:35
Bl00dy thing started leaking on me today!!! I thought I spotted a drop of water in that area yesterday when checking fluids and giving the old girl a good clean but all the levels were OK!!

Set of for a funeral in Portsmouth today and get most of the way there to get the dreaded message flash up... Check Coolant!  >:( >:( >:(

Used a fair bit too, a little over a pint!! Anyway... Had to get home again so I just topped it up and left the cap loose so I could get home safely! After a few check stops I'm home again so I guess that's on the list of jobs for next week!  ::) ::) ::)

Luckily I've only got to go to and from work (18 miles each way) 3 times before I can do it!

Most annoying thing is that I was going to replace it when I do the LPG conversion in about 6 weeks, just to be sure it was a goodun for a while!  >:( >:( >:(
