hi guys,still persisting it down here,bighorn been sat on front garden all night just waiting for bit of dry weather,gonna give it a hour then it looks like i going have to lay a plastic sheet on grass and get under her to take bottom hose off.
just wish mrs had let me slab front garden when i wanted to in summer lol.

lets hope for a straight forward flush and stat fit but being me that may be a bit too much to wish for,been hunting net for bit wider tyres too but the spending would never stop with the modifications that can be made..

hi all
well bit the bullet and did cooling system,did the holts 2 part flush,bought quite a lot of dirt out,took thermostat out and tested it and even when cold it was still partly open so fitted new one.
did the refilling as by someones recomendation on here and there seems be a remarkable difference in heat when its on high(digital heat system)
going let her cool down now then top up and take her a run.

just want say thanks for the treads on how to flush etc as with me being a novice i wouldnt of had a clue how to do it,

thank you again.

next thing is new backbox as mines split on seams and wider tyres and advice on a body/spring lift

many thanks again
