The Brum-B-Dead,

Post by Wooster » Thu Jan 09, 2014 2:14 pm

Oil & water doesn't mix, nor does the magical disappearing radiator water
leave one with a contented feeling. Full Stop.

I was wondering yesterday arvo where the water was, yep it's been hot here this week but not that hot that water evaporates from a sealed unit.

It looked quite artistic oozing from the airfilter and trying to escape from the sump.:oops:

Replacement obtained, thanks Carl & should be back in her on the weekend

Long live the Galactic Lightspeed Red Rocket!

Have a go at pulling the rocker covers off to make sure you haven't dropped a welch plug. You might have a good engine on your hands if the welch plug has let go.

I'm only asking as my recent brumby has this exact issue. I'm still putting it back together though :rolleyes:

Cheers

Red Rocket lives to fly another day turning street lights into blurry blue lines in space
