Hi everyone one ,
Just an update on my stag,
First of all i would like to thank julian, for taking time out in coming down again to help me out , also james coming down again , and sam for suppying the radiator.
So thursday night i stripped most of the car ready for julians arrival , when then proceeded to do the jobs i was not sure about , then julian went home to get his stag ready for today and james arrived at 2 pm and we then got the old chains off and managed to fit the new ones on and put the cover back on complete with alternator.
The timing will be done as soon as the new hoses have arrived , so julian i took your advice on new hoses , may as well as they are off the car.
So jobs to do now are fit new cork gaskets to the rocker covers and refit, refit viscous fan, underseal the crossmember where the rad fits on to, fit rad , airfilter box , then fit new hoses when they arrive, complete with new antifreeze, and top up the power steering fluid as i was a numpty and left the pump on its side and did not check if the lid was shut , ooops .
.
So one question what is the best antifreeze to get .
regards paul
