antony 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2009 Had a half glass, for some reason I have the sensation that I could eat a banana with ease. Anywho, it tastes less like choclate flavoured vitamin water, and more like deep fried chickens feet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antony 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2009 Good point, ill put it through the engine for a couple of mins. How do they go without the top part? Might take an extra couple of mins to heat up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antony 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2009 Yea, and because im bad-ass, I'll just run it through the gears on the spot and smoke up the tyres in the garage. Hmm, maybe I'll take some salmon out there. It would acompany my tastey beverage nicely. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antony 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2009 Anywho, Crowd Goes Wild is about to finish. Blew a head gasket, heads off getting checked out. Engine was only 7000kms since rebuild. Rather dissapointed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QuickSilver 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2009 Ah mate I know your pain! Good luck sorting that out, mine was the opposite, checked my oil, noticed it was gone, found it all in the coolant tank My crack (in the head) was so fine, that only the high pressure from the oil galley would force oil into the coolant, and the sitting pressure of the radiator wasn't enough to force water BACK through the crack. I hope you sort it all out without too much issue! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant 4 Report post Posted September 11, 2009 Antony - sorry to hear that. All said and done though, this was a pretty amusing read - nice attitude to the blown headgasket. Good luck on the repairs Cheers Grant Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
