        seats are not heated.

        car was a runner till just before christmas bodywork damage but ok. then it started mixing oil and water which was a suspect oil cooler which apparently corrodes throughwhen left sitting. changed the oil cooler and then it wouldn't start. So i never know if I fixed it or not. who knows, it might start up with a fuel pump and be fine or it might need a headgasket, just don't know and haven't got the money to find out.

        pics will follow.

            for the books, it was mixing oil in the water not water in the oil. Not sure if that means anything.

            I can see im going to have to fix this bar steward!

                cracked block! A possibility i suppose but highly unlikely. Anywhere theres a possibility of cross contaminating.

                Weakest places are.
