f#*k f#*k f#*k! with a picture of the bar steward

Post by lloydy »

Just broke down in a cloud of steam :cry:
On having a look, the "lid" of the aux water pump has disapeared? Hopefully the AA man will Carry one, or at least a coupler to bypass it so I can carry on camping.......
Fingers crossed I haven't shagged the head

Steam pouring out the back, 2 mins max of driving like that. Couldn't see a split pipe so refilled and it poured out the aux water pump. Quite a loud hissing noise from the head though, liking this facebook8090 cross forum typing :lol:
