if it aint snowing and its warm enough tommorow ill take the rad out and flow test it properly

yup water pump shoots water almost to the bonnet with it on tickover... flow return to tank might be a problem not sure how to do that without dye, it does come through the tiny pipe from top of rad right hand side a bit, after i turned engine off the last time.. I took the top hose of the...

just took it for a drive to get it up to temp and heater wasent working at all... not even at high revs.. :S

yup, i stuck waterr in from top hose area and it came out down by thermostat area Thru the rad of course... But now i read the rad is seperated into sections or something? so i should be testing other pipes for flow in the rad??

you can get your current one galvanised, big job and expensive though,

on filing up follow rave instructions as previously stated.. these are a nightmare for airlocks

ive drained my system afew times using the same washer, no leaks yet... For draining system undo expansion tank cap leave a rag over the opening to stop crap going in there and undo drain plug on bottom near front bumper, if you still have your undershield fitted then theres an access panel...
