Re: electronic speedo connection

Having had a further look there is a metal tab held in by a bolt that holds the fitting to the gearbox but I was trying to find out what holds the wiring bit in position.

Re: Coolant hoses

RobboMC, The hoses on mine do cross over which would seem correct the Rimmer brochure indicates this also, So all ok in that respect.

Re: where to get Hydragas pumped up ????

Hi All, I'm in the North East of Scotland and just bought a pump and low loss connector to sort my own so if anyone in the area needs to borrow it let me know Cheers, Keith.

Coolant hoses

On refitting my engine and running up to temp the coolant in the reservoir was bubbling surely that can't be right so I'm worried now that I've got the rear hoses crossed though I was confident at the time of fitting, Any advice please?. :roll:

Re: Head gasket change

Thanks for that Reckless, I'm sure all will be well, I fitted a low level alarm a while back and have just put in a new filler cap too, I also let the engine idle and come up to temp before hitting the road. Being 70 I'm not the type to go thrashing it around I much prefer cruising our country roads...
