Re: Coolant temp?

I took the cap off as there was air in the top of the header, with the use of a big rag to stop my hand from melting! Obviously the air escaped pretty sharpish and it did over flow a bit, I then stuck in my thermometer from my pressure testing kit. I have a 1.7 diesel by the way

Coolant temp?

Hi Does anyone know what the temp of the coolant should be? Iv just measured mine inside the header and it was 90 degrees C, after a 25 minute run. The reason I ask is because my temp gauge is reading at about 3/4 prob just over! I also found that the "dalek" cap on top of the header is no...

Re: just kampers rock and roll bed

I'v got the whole kit from JK had it in for over a year now and am soon to be ripping it out as the coating is chipped all over the place and the MDF doesn't really seem strong enough. I'm going to replace it with ply, wish I had to start with now as I payed full price. It initially looked good but,...

Re: Squeeky springs

i have lowered the bus and got the tracking set but not the camber, this was over a year ago now and have not yet noticed any wear to my tyres.

Should I get the camber checked out to be safe?
