Title: lost all coolant water ?
Post by: james2 on 10 November 2014, 20:32

Just as i got to the m.o.t station.  :angry: The metal pipe that runs around the engine keeps poppping a leak (second one) . 15min drive took 2 hours to drive it home. Patched it up, but can not get the heater to work.  Any tips (its cold on HI).  :undecided:
