It would burn for days! It's the first thing I'm sort out.
Will start stripping the engine bay out to find these leaks out next week while its on the drive, then onto the suspension!

I've made a start! The aux rad has come out/fell out! The core was rotten and literally fell out as i removed it! good job thats not going back in haha. Plan on removing it and trying the system for temp before i cut any pipes. Thanks to S2Central.net for the tutorial on removing the aux rad! i added the tools of chisel and hammer to remove the bottom mounts! :-)
I cant really do much more yet, our garage is still full and havent got anywhere to put parts in an organised fashion... hopefully next week itll get emptied and i can start taking it off an get it on axle stands.
I got itchy fingers and took the radio out though, some interesting wiring behind it! no suprise it didnt work properly so i may takle this while im waiting for the garage! New parcel shelf to go in too!
Cant wait to get this underway properly now!1996 Audi S2 - 295bhp and 326lb/ft - Complete Rebuild Project

water leak....you can just see a pool of it in between the pipes
Powersteering Leak!!!
The pile of bits to be fitted (missing new rear discs and pads)

yea, the shocks are up-rated H&R i think? possibly bilsteen? will have to strip away and see!
the fuel lines are a big thing on the jobs list now after seeing the state.
All the rust seems to be surface corrosion and bit of paint flaking off. I had nightmares of it shedding itself underneath!1996 Audi S2 - 295bhp and 326lb/ft - Complete Rebuild Project
