You wouldn't believe how much muck came out. Jammed in the plastic trim below too where it is supposed to drain into.
Easyjet?Get an air line into there ....
Easyjet?
O rings are more likely than the matrix.Washed the outside today and hoovered the inside. You can actually see the floor again. Also picked out all the leaves and ****e from the scuttle and where it gets trapped between the skins of the front wing. Hosed the chassis down too.
Unfortunately I think there were signs of dampness near the transmission tunnel and I had to top up the coolant slightly. Never had to do that before. Suspect heater matrix is on its last legs or maybe the infamous o-rings as I've never done them.
You know what coolant feels/ smells like. At the age these old girls are, even breathing on those two pipes in the engine bay causes the leak..Wow a pic
I had wet under both carpets when I pulled it out the other day. I’m just ignoring it for now as I don’t need to top up. Cleaned and dried out with a bit of batten pinning it back to air.
Think it was just the way I’d parked it had the rain lashing on the scuttle area.
Does it seem like it has coolant in it or just water?

Fronts do more breaking than the rear, that's what the brake bias is all aboutStripped both rear calipers ,they were rusty binside ,so obviously have not been working for a while. Front pads 2mm rears 6mm ,tells its own story. New ones on order. still underneath de crapping the chassis. dont know how far to take it yet,will keep you informed

Oh dear these things are sent to try usI was told put an airline on the blocked washer hoses in my old Hilux. Quite an extensive run of hoses, guess what happened?
They were blocked so when I put compressed air down it they all popped off and it never worked again.
..sorry, shouldn't laugh. Just had a vision of bits of pipe and washer nozzles flying everywhere..I was told put an airline on the blocked washer hoses in my old Hilux. Quite an extensive run of hoses, guess what happened?
