Hello all,
While doing my fluid level checks last night I discovered that I had lost about
3/4 litre of water, it's been about a week and a half since I last checked them.When I went to open the bleed screw under the distributor I noticed a damp patch and a aint blister about 1/2 inch behind the bleed screw. Being inquisitive I poked the blister and water came out of it so I scraped the paint off to see what was happening under it. There are a few small patches of very light rust in an area about 1/2" diameter but no sign of a hole.
I checked this morning when I got to work and there is some dampness round the edge of the paint and a small damp patch on the gearbox housing below.
Is this pipe known for giving way in this area at a welded seam for example?
Will I be able to mig weld a patch in situ with system drained and rubber bits disconnected, assuming I can find the leak and get at it. It looks a right pig to get the pipe out.
Thanks in advance
Jimmy
