Couple of jobs for tonight:
New temp sender for my temp gauge.
I noticed last night driving around that the temp appears to have increased on my gauge.
Top hose was easy to hold when I got to work so engine is definitely not hot. Easiest option is to replace the sender first!! Has been fitted a few years in fairness...
AND
Here's a thingamajig to fit a breather to my PAS Reservoir.
The standard vent hole is just less than 6mm, so I will drill it out to 6mm and then push the stainless 6mm stem in with some glue if necessary, then I can connect a breather pipe.
This will complete the waterproofing of my engine bay.
My plan is to submerge the front end of the car at a slipway on a fresh water lake and see if it will carry on running, stood still, underwater.
Probably not a good idea I know!!

Your rockers fully waterproofed too then ? If you're planning on submerging it fully

Yep the mushroom filter has been replaced with:
This is piped to the breather circuit which is snorkel height.
As above, it could turn out to be a horrendously bad idea but I'm not sure I'll be happy until I've tried it...

Once, I drove mine through a really deep puddle. It must have been 1.5, possibly even 2 inches deep.

I went in blind once, but once i'd got through the foliage I found I could go in really deep. It was a bit tight on the sides but after a while it widened out.
Still I came out again very happy.

Took all of about 5 minutes to do from start to finish, but yes in theory it should be the last thing in my engine bay that was open to air.
Didnt take a pic of it fitted for some strange reason?????
Will get a pic tomorrow

Nice little mod that! Are you going to do anything about your battery?
