He reckoned Nick's was a good un unfortunately the colour of the water we got out (and the colour of my drive) suggests that they didn't do the rad at the same time.

Tow rope good for up to 2 ton my foot.

Towing Ophicus was less strain than pulling the caravan with it's jammed brakes last weekend

Well the work has started on the new head replacement. Both front seats removed for ease, engine covers off above and below, radiator removed and new one fitted, turbo and exhaust manifold removed. Not bad for the first day. Nice small steps to what hopefully will be a successful conclusion.
