[ianrobinson1989]

Weekend new radiator n sump going on so while im there get it cleand down n some bits wire brushed

 

[wavedriver]

looks very empty in there, where is everything?

 

[Paul Smith]

Looks good. Might be worth making a plate for the rear of the cone so it catches the air and not passes through. Also might help keep the air cooler.

Looks good though

 

[ianrobinson1989]

Cheers paul n wavedriver its nt a 3litre v6 its a 1litre micra haha no airbox or anything just emptys the place up haha n paul ill do tht the weekend neva thort of tht

[ianrobinson1989]

Nothing wrong with where it is.. heavy rain won't affect it... its filtered

Wasn't meant arsily, those "..." were there to show that I wasn't making a final, definate statement is all

 

[drand]

"…" is called an ellipsis. Now _that's_ an arsey comment ;-)
