Had a good full day in the garage yesterday and things are looking good on the cooling front.  :) :) :)

Here's the space I had earmarked for both the radiator and the filter head. As you can see I meticulously the whole area in preparation.   :D :D :D



First things first 1 x cooler installed............................then ran into a slight problem  ::) ::) ::)..............no space for the filter so a quick rethink and found somewhere else close by!   ;) ;) ;)



Then ran into another problem, because I had a change of plan on locating the filler head, of the 6 x connectors I had bought only 2 were now the right type so will be reordering the right ones tomorrow.  :P :P :P

................but in the meantime I did manage to make one pipe up. Luckily I'd been given a few tips as otherswise there would have been lots off $%#£££&&&@@£#^$ going on!  ;D ;D ;D

 





Last job was then to fit one of the new end cans using a nifty adaptor knocked up by who else but Mike.
Thanks Mike it worked an absolute treat.  ;-)up ;-)up ;-)up



Bring on next weekend when all things being equal I'll be finishing  the fitting and firing the lump up!  ;) ;) ;)

So young Jedi you have started you quest from the dark sided.  What did I say at the end of last year and repeated already this year .... annodiosed is the new bling !  Shocked you didnt get them in some crappy dirty gingerish colour.... but delighted to see you are starting to see the light.

Just repeat after me several times young Jedi ... thank you lord Autosol for we are truely grateful for all things Autoglym and the bling that you cast upon us. Give us strength to polish and lead us not into temptation of the nasty dark side.  For I am truley a believer and will no doubt worship images of Clem , Andrew and Krugs buggies for now and eternity and never let me forget the bling that was called Fester

What a lovely optimistic and brotherly lot all you Chromos are  :) :) :) I'm looking forward to my ongoing mission to open your eyes to the wisdom and ways of the Dalai Mel.  ;-)up ;-)up ;-)up All components have been placed to perform perfectly whilst gathering as much crud as quickly and efficiently as possible!   ::) ::) ::)

New connectors arrived today and bend in all the right directions in all the right places.  :D :D :D All looking good for the weekend.  :) :) :)

Keep your eyes peeled for pictures of shiny stuff that won't be shiny for long.  ;D ;D ;D

Cheers
