Hello,

My heater hadn't worked since I changed my timing belt what with undoing all the top end water pipes etc. so I've just flushed the heater box (hose pipe jubilee clipped into intake pipe, the output end out into atmosphere) and a whole load of ****e's been washed through. The water ran nice and clear and now I've got my heating back, perfect! Just in time to miss the snow and now its getting warmer again :rolleyes:

Land rovers ey :D
 
My heater stopped working too... i then found out that 3 litres of coolant had 'vanished'... :-O i put more in quick. Suspect the cereal packet emergency gasket that I had forgotten about - now changed. Pointlessly, as the engine is now buggered, no thanks to the coolant system.

wotts wrong wi cereal packet gaskets? i gotta thermostat housing sealed wi weetabix box and its absolute fine for last 6 months:D
Me thinks user error perhaps or possibly other cause
 
You're still a lot better off doing the job properly with a gasket that isn't water repelling shiny on one side and far too thin! Still, it works so why not!? "My third hand fender runs on veg oil with cornflake packet gaskets and remolded tyres and you still call me un-environmentally friendly?"

**** OFF :D

Exactly. Our older defenders and discos all the same are probably the most environmentally friendly vehicles in existence.

not sure my V8 efi 90 could be called be classed as environmentally friendly, but i get yer point
 
Im sure if you tried you could find a way to make it work for you... :) I rekon we should get tax reductions for using veg oil - its carbon nuetral, so why not? If a bloody 'hybrid' lexus 4x4 wannabe can get cheap tax, why not the veg oil conversions that are actually carbon neutral!
Anyone know anyone in politics, to try to lobby this or summat?
