I guess the answer is you can always stop.. But I was on the A34 and there was no hard shoulder, approaching a roundabout. So I basically thought I'd aimed to get to the other side of the roundabout where I knew there was a bus stop and I didn't make it in time.. Ah well.. And the swag was weighing ...

I do just that I had a nasty incontinent last year where my v-belt popped off and I couldn't stop anywhere at the time. By the time I stopped a pipe had burst, I decided to sort quite allot of my coolant system out then. I replaced the pipe of course and the header tank. Also I read on here about po...

Basically yes it was the fan switch. I think the confusion here from my early replies might be when the cable pop's off my header tank that sends the needle to the far right, nothing else. I don't know why but the plug to the cable that links to my header tank doesn't seem to fit too well. Maybe it'...

The temp transmitter to the fan stopped working. All fixed, I guess that's why it wasn't so warm either

When the cable pops out it flashes and goes to max temp on the gauge while driving. I then stop and pop it back in and it's near half so I guess it's not that like you say.

Thanks,

Well I made it back with quite allot of traffic but no 1 hour stand still. One thing I forgot to mention is the cable from the header tank popped off a few times. Would that affect the fan management? I still think the fan isn't kicking in but I'll do some more faffing on the weekend.

Thanks,

Yeah I think my first shock might be simply trying to get home without over heating in all the flippin traffic: http://www.bbc.co.uk/travelnews/stoke

Might make use of the bed in the back if all else fails

I'll have a look on Sat with the grill off, I'm guessing I should see some movement or feel some air. Then I'll try the cable thing, I guess at least it'll get my heart rate up in this weather if I do jump

Thanks,

Roger

I was stuck in traffic this morning and I noticed my temp was going up and up. I had to stop in town after a while to cool it down, it was definitely overheating Normally I never get stuck in traffic (normally bike to work) so I guessed I've never noticed this. Do you think this could be the fan? Or...

Ah I see you're a designer as well, so you probably get my issues with colour. It's all a bit like a tattoo, I need to pick the right colour early on and get used to the idea I think. http://www.colourlovers.com/color/FF9B1B/orangina%E2%84%A2" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ...

Hi, I'm about to embark on the long, tedious, soul destroying and yet liberating experience of re-painting my bus. Only soul destroying because of the abuse I'll get for spending hours on it :) The below photo really doesn't do justice to how many scratches and patina the body work has.. http://eth3...

What's the difference between the following parts: 025 121 407 or 025 121 403 (header tank)

I have a: 025 121 407 with a crack but I can only seem to find 025 121 403 which look the same to me.

Shall I just get a 025 121 403?

Crumbs! I'll see how I get on with the new one then. Ordered a new cap from brickwerks.. I can but try, at least I now know to check it.

Ok if you say so. I was wondering if mine was working at all. It looks fairly new but if you say some don't work. I guess that could attribute to a few things..

Thanks,

Roger

Thanks, oops yeah sorry it's a 1.9 petrol.

That's sounds like the issue. Picked a new one up from ebay, I think I'll change the cap if it doesn't come with a new one.

Again thanks for your help.
