Hi Peeps..went out to visit rooodboy today as he was going to do my O/S engine mount..What a pig to get to.He bent two spanners and snapped one eventually..Couldnt take the manifold off as the spanner was slipping on the nut..Poor fella..Sweating his cods off to no avail..But at least the blow in the exhaust downpipe sorted itself out..Very strange..He even nipped out to get a couple of fittings for the wrench..Took some crafty snaps..hehe..Thanks for trying though mate..Cheers..Ziga

Oh i think ive found out where some of my water was going...When i got home the header tank cap was leaking so ive put the spare on..


Some shots of mine while i was waiting for him to return..

I thought you could get at the mounts by taking either wheel off...?

It was the top bolt that was the problem..The bottom one came off relatively easy..There was just no access to the top..The manifold was in the way and the manifold bolts wouldnt budge..I will ask Dan taylor if they can do it as it goes in tomorrow for the rear bushes and trailing arm pin and bush to be done..Cheers..Ziga

Hi mate.
Yeah, sorry we didn't get much done, but I didn't think it was worth risking starting something that I couldn't finish the same day.
Very frustrating that one!

Hope you've sorted the coolant leak.
