Lady Bus owner in distress - Cambridge

Post by thenaylortribe »

Does any of you technically minded lot live in the Cambridge area?
A very pretty friend of mine (who has just joined the forum but I can't remember her username!) has oil/water leaks from her bus and hasn't got a clue what to do about it...Technical chivalry required I think.. I'm too far away in Winchester to pop up and have a look for her.

I don't think its an emergency but if anyone is local and fancy helping out could they let me know and I'll pass it on.

Cheers...Lee

jamesc76 is a top man and sometimes around Cambridge during the week, as is Ringo. Failing that I own a large hammer and live in Cambridge, and I am willing to look at any thing, whether my hammer can fix it is another matter. :lol:

Generally when the gauge is far above the little red light in the middle. The rad fan should kick in at that point though...
