Title: water loss & misfire
Post by: sparkplug on 30 December 2013, 10:31
as above ,i found a weep from the middle of the expansion return pipe
renewed it but still losing water..
so ran her up till the fan cut in ,then turned off & unplugged the fan..still no obvious leek
ended up squeezing all the rubber hoses & found a split , which was squirting onto the alternator, then getting thrown onto the plugs,the split in a year old Euro car parts hose  :angry:
looks like it has perished from old age,maybe on a shelf too long ?


still an easy fix  :smiley:  GTI keeps me spanners from going rusty  :laugh:
