terribleturner Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 .....but non of it staying in my rad Of course it happened yesterday and today the car went into the bodyshop so not enough time to investigate. Has anyone replaced all the rad/water related hoses?? Anyone have part numbers/prices?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Before you go replacing hoses willy-nilly (I love that expression ) you need to find out where it's actually leaking from. It might just be a faulty Rad cap... ...or a cracked rad tank (This has happened to me) ...or a water pump (a 'Crank pulley off' job - not fun) Good luck mate, I hope it is actually a hose problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Despite what I said just now, it's probably just a leaky rad cap, James. That's the best outcome really - easiest to fix, certainly. Don't lose any sleep over it mate, just deal with it when you get her back. Anyway, what are you having done at the bodyshop? Hopefully it's something nice rather than repairs.

terribleturner Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 She's getting a new outfit put on just in time for JAE . Blitz front with veilside skirts and spats. Trying to get a bit more air to the IC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Blitz front? Is that the "Snowplough" wedge type one like Paul E had on his white Supe? Unusual choice there mate - if you don't mind me saying. I'm thinking of either the Riddox or Stillen for my grey RZ at the moment. What made you go for the Blitz? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 It's a hard thing to decide on and i couldn't go with Veilside or Bomex as they have been done to death. It was a toss up between a Do Luck and the Blitz and i felt that there were less Blitz out there. Plus i saw a couple of pictures of the Blitz with the Ab Flug bonnet and i had to say yes. Ooo yes the Riddox one is very nice. ***Mental note*** Do not put just ""Stillen" into the Google image search on it's own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
