Decking phone. BBC = hbv
Decking? rather phone and it's stupid spell checker

So... It's fixed again... Are we back on for the weekend? :-?

If so, one of you better bring a torque wrench (mine's a bit big!) and your preference of soldering equipment/tape/heat shrink etc :y

Done around 80 miles since the leak fixed. Would that have burnt off yet.


I should add, that 80 miles was most definately an unspirited drive

Judging by your description of a "Geyser" it will have soaked into the lining inside the bonnet ;)

ime the coolent smell will linger for some time, wonder if its worth a rinse off with a hose, esp on bits that get hot, tends to leave residue if it evaporates on hot parts, hence the burnt suger type smell....IME...?

FFS, I behaved, and did exactly what I thought I was told.  Was told to take it easy initially (so I didn't go above 3k rpm), then I was asked to give it a spirited drive.

Its this last bit where the misunderstanding was....

When I said a spirited drive I didn't mean a Malcolm Cambell esq land speed record attempt!
