the book I have says it shold take 0.23L (0.4 Pints) from empty of SAE 10.

I'd be inclined to put something slightly heavier in if you live in a warmer cliamte though.

hey mate,
I can send a whole pump for the price of postage.
can have it in the mail first thing tomorrow.
PM me if that suits.

Pump's off a A15(same pump)

postage to hawaii may be a little on the expensive side,
let me know what you want and I'll get a solid quote.

Dave.

the other option is to replace the two lengths of hose either side of the tap with a single piece so the coolant always cycles. Should be okay till summer, but it gives you more time to find a new tap.

Parts are in Toowoomba QLD.
Happy to deliver as far as Brisbane/Gold Coast/Sunshine Coast for the price of fuel.

when you tidied up the calipers did you inspect the large 'square' ring that seals the piston?
was it hard or still soft?

a hard sealing ring in the calipers will sometimes cause this problem as it doesn't help to retract the piston properly when you take your foot of the pedal.

After the car has been sitting for a little while, how much free-play do you have in the pedal?
You should have a couple of mm before the rod starts to push the piston.

Were the calipers new/reconditioned or secondhand ones that have been sitting for a considerable amount of time?

does the needle move smoothly from slow all the way to fast or does it 'flick' around?

if it flicks a bit it's likely the cable. If it's smooth, its likely the guage.
