It already seems to be sacrificial ;-)

dont see why not, could be an issue for an auto box though

if unpluging it made no difference it's not your problem. check your other hoses

pat1, can you give more details, pictures?

sounds like a good call doobreydog, I'd go down that path first

depends on what you want to achieve

give it a go, offer it up and see

sounds great to me, an 03 with 10k on the clock. go for it!

do you print that copy out during or after the blackout?

I dont think it would be a silly question

I would test with another gauge to be sure. no good assuming all is ok because oil level is good, pump could be knackerd, relief springs could be weak. or as NI says could only be a bad conection

job well done. good on you :-)

Linseed oil works like magic, comes up better than new!. rub in with a clean cloth, takes about a day to fully dry.

get yourself a RAVE, go to "green oval" to download

brake light switch another possible fault

MHM i think its a test, has to be a test. Organic Acid Technology I agree with MHM. did I pass the test???

is this a test????

head will be warped for sure, mine was the same- head gasket looking like new, but coolant loss into oil. dont forget to check the height if your liners. best of luck Dylan

get RAVE cd or haynes manual

Thanks MHM
