Nick, I've got no e-mails mate? You got the right address?

I can get up to Douglas tonight if you want a hand. I'd take the thermo off and test it anyway to check it is working at the right temp just for peace of mind.

Radiator definately not clogged up anywhere?

Yeah dude, I want to remove the thermostat to rule it out of the equation, although I suppose I'll only have the same problem when I drain it to refit it again. Doh!

Rad doesn't seem to be blocked as I could blow through it fine before it went in.

Not sweet! face-icon-small-smile.gif

Not too long, just to get lots of money together as it has been a bit hectic in Stockport and we need to get house-hunting fast.

Much happening in Scooby Island?

Jim you need to repair that rad I gave ya bud. The bit at the top DOES need to flow properly otherwise it will overheat. Same problem with that one as when I took it out it was doing the same thing. New rad in and it solved it face-icon-small-smile.gif

Will search for another one for you.

Little fluckers Neil, sorry to hear that mate face-icon-small-sad.gif

Ahh I see! Then I shall get a pipe into it one way or another mate!

Guess that's where that screw was then dude? I figured that was just screwed into a broken bit and that there was no pipe seeing as it has to cap on the rad either.

I will get to work when I find a suitable piece to tap into it.... face-icon-small-happy.gif

Much obliged for this rad matey. face-icon-small-smile.gif

Yep! Need to find something like a hollow bolt , or some sort of threaded pipe I can screw into the plastic and the water can come out through......

OR! Just thought, I could take the good end tank and put it on my rad that has the bits there already. Anyone ever removed/refitted an end tank on a rad?

It LOOKS quite easy.....

Morning dudes! face-icon-small-smile.gif

Me? Why would you possibly think that'd be me matey? face-icon-small-wink.gif

Yes it was. face-icon-small-happy.gif

Will pull out the rad again this evening and try getting some means of attaching that pipe to it, then if it works I'll head down to Mrs D's scooby surgery and pick up the 'merchandise' for you Andi!

A trip to the HQ down in Ballabeg!! Sounds exciting. It must be serious at the unoffical Manx SIDC hideout!

Have you figured out how to 'glue' on some piping to the side of the radiator then?

Glad you had a good hol mate. face-icon-small-smile.gif

It looks a matter of unprising the metal tabs, swapping the tank then prising them closed again but I'm not sure if I'll get a good enough seal reassembling it by hand. Will try option A of repairing the broken pipe bit first I think just in case & leave end tank swapping as a last resort!
