Re: Coolant Leak! Which pipe do I need?
Ive cut end off the pipe and refitted for now, but its not ideal as the pipe had a shoulder moulded into the end.

Re: Exhaust studs.
My JX was blowing across the manifold every since I got it because someone snapped a stud in the head and rather than fixing it, bodged it with sealant meaning I ended up having a new head fitted.
Hopefully when I come to fit a stainless exhaust this year, it won't cost me so much money!
