Re: These, are the voyages of the starship Turby D.
I had special tape with me
I could, have fixed it....but not on the road side. Interestingly the mechanics didn't bother getting the air out of the system ...they told me just drive it and top it up some time. I did not expect that hose to make such a mess underneath everywhere. Obviously it steamed dry straight away at the top near the engine? But it looked very very clean and dry, I did check it twice

It was better to have the job done properly Jaap as you had the chance and with many further miles to cover. I bet you were pleased to be home safely! With regards, Matthew T.

Jaap has a plan Vince. He is going to borrow all my old coolant pipes from my now spare engine and have new ones made up. Might be worth looking into and getting a job lot done if there is enough interest.

I found a QH part that fitted the hot water outlet to heater pipe perfectly. iirc, they were for A-R Metro.

Re: These, are the voyages of the starship Turby D.
Only read this now, about this QH part:)
But anyways, I am not overly fond of new cars, especially all the dings and dongs telling you of about all sorts of nonsense.
Today I found out I drive a modern car as well since another 'bleep' woke me up of sorts...no NOT AGAIN....
Another and new warning light.....a computer message....Did I tell you I don't like modern cars...but it's got me smiling now since I got reminded now to fill up the windscreen washer. I never knew this XM had this feature. I wonder if there's more, like blown rear lights??

They nag you about everything apart from the seatbelt. The light is there in the dash but not wired up.

I think that the last ones have a seat belt reminder wired up.
