Thanks!

Im going to try some rubber hose and compressed air to start then and nip up the joints better as access was a pig

I will get some compound and uk made Compression fittings if that fails. Then give up and just buy a new pipe if all fails

Success after nipping them up the system held pressure under vaccum

ICE COLD BABY

Although the rear seems hit and miss i can only assume it will take a few hours of circulation to work fully

I then decided to treat the car and had the pleasure of changing my old knobs to some shiny new bulbous ones

The car is now fully fixed and saved at this point

41 cant be right! Surely but im sure it it was very hot

Winter approaches fast and so glad to have found a full set of rubber matts used for 75 squid, hate think what they would cost new! No cuts or tears wish you could buy the drivers matt new solo.



They should scrub up well

It said 42 when we got in the car and dropped to 41 after driving off. The car was park in ypres town centre in belgium early July this year so it reflects and traps all the heat making the main town square a bit of an oven.

Nice find on the mats must dig out my winter mats and put the summer mats away now the weathers changing. 1st world problems Rolling with laughter
