Gaz6002 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Just heard back from the garage and number 2 cylider is cracked This follows the thermostat giving up and the radiator cracking. Looks like an interestingly expensive project is in the making! ....Nurburgring 1 - Supra 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kranz Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Errrm, sounds like it'll be expensive. I take it the thermostat is a service item?! Think I'd better go & service it soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted July 11, 2007 Author Share Posted July 11, 2007 Errrm, sounds like it'll be expensive. I take it the thermostat is a service item?! Think I'd better go & service it soon I would mate. It seems that the 'stat and rad are 2 weakpoints that bit me in the ass at the same time. This after the heater matrix let go 6 months ago lol. I feel the coolant system itself is a bit of a weakpoint but suspect this could be down to not using correct coolant. I always have but if the owner in Japan didn't then this could explain a few things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
