it's ok to disagree


imho and through experience with mine the JV is now continually flowing with coolant, whereas afore it did jam and cause problems.

to summarise it causes less problems without it

Yep when it jams it certainly cuases grief! I suppose that with no BB the water will just shot up into the tank and then a bit will get sucked back down again - that's how I had it with the EWP.

Yeh clearly I don't have enough real strife in my life so I have to create it .

The most valuable lesson I learned was not to lose sight of what Landy ownership is about: enjoying the car. Because of all this EWP fannying I haven't even taken it laning yet. Couldn't see the forest for the trees I guess .

Ahhh maybe it's cause I don't have aircon? Lol

Yes DD's has no aircon and he only has one fan. His is an earlier S spec one I think. Though he stuck facelifted bumbers and V6 badge on it! Cheater!

A/C should be directed into the engine bay instead of the cab for me

 

[Garboy88]

Lol well that's 1 fan I don't have to buy then! Any other mods or ideas for making it a bit more reliable?
