metal coolant pipes
Whoops, just picked a rust flake off the big metal coolant pipe which goes along under the van next to the gearbox, and the "bar-steward" sprung a leak! How expensive is this going to be? 1.9 dg.

Re: metal coolant pipes
Cheapest fix is cut out rusty bit, add in a length of hose

Not NEARLY as expensive as if you hadn't picked the scab off, and the pipe'd let go on a hot motorway.

If you've got a spare wheel barrow, just whip the handle off..........
