well if your radiator hose is gunna blow you would want it to happen outside bunnings and not too far from repco
lucky for me it did yes thats right
we pulled up to get fuel and decided it was packed and we would be here for half an hour so took a detour through bunnings car park (well didnt quiet make it) and the Y started chugging reel bad we made it into a parking spot open up the bonnet,
hey my engine bay is now covered with sh1tty radiator gunk and so is my distributor and spark plugs! but lucky enough we were on the way to pick a part wreckers, which ment about every useful tool in our garage was now either on the back seat or in the boot of the 120y and i suppose even more lucky we were outside bunnings and just around the corner from repco
so we got the chick at repco to find us a hose with the same bend as the 120y hose then cut it to size uing a blade knife from bunnings
some crafty thinking had us pumping the water from the washer bottle into the radiator
and we all know when a hose is gunna blow its gunna blow
so i suppose the best place for it to happen is outside a tool shop and around the corner from a parts shop!
and after this i decided it was time to flush the radiator and top it up with some good stuff castrol radicool i guess thats gunna keep me busy tomoro then
thanks for reading Jason

its looking pretty clean mate
do you know what caused the headlight fuse to blow? maybe a too small fuse was installed previously?
also do you like driving auto? my auto goes well once its warmed up but before its at running temp its like trying to wake up a grumpy old man!

yes its pretty dark back there
if that white connecter inst connected to anything coming out the back of the clock then im nearly certain that should be your clocks source of power
but like i said if you take out your dash and look on the back of the clock you will soon work out your own connections
