johnnyr6 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 (edited) your aircon matrix is in there m8, but it's prob your heater matrix if it smells of coolant. Johnny Edited June 4, 2009 by JohnnyR6 Link to comment

tucku34bt Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 right. was getting worried the matrix wouldn't be fixed for the drag race we are having in Stornoway a week sat, (with our clubs brand new lighting tree and timing system imported from America) that the dash would still be in bits. haven't had a chance to get near it till tonight., then i had a brainwave, bypass the matrix, no heating but no coolant leakage either. so i can now wait until after the event before striping the interior to bits. crisis averted. phew Link to comment
