    troublesome punto.....

    on behalf of gregsgt...

    a few shots of the engine bay, and a recent problem we have found as a result of lack of coolant after the instalation of a T25...

    red engine bay..









    no prizes for spotting what the problem is...





    took the head off to inspect the head gasket earlier on but the camera went flat, will update soon.......

    cant see any noticable cracks, i think more like a warped head! there was alot of pressure goin into the coolant system in a short space of time, too much for just a crack imo.
    just so happens we have a spare head in the boot of the gt

    I take cars for slow drives to check for any problems before planting it, unlike some eh? Lucky for me the cinq was a roadside repair, so it wasnt off the road and is still running fine as you read this.
