Well after checking the radiator during a previou soil change I thought it was due to be replaced.
No sign of leakage but I was getting the occasional sweet smell of something burning off.

Another year went by without issues, other then the occasional wiff. So I gave it another check at the next oil change and spotted a subtle drip.
It easn't obvious on first inspection, but it appeared 20 mins after switch off.

So I finally had to fit a new radiator. Not bad considering car is now nearly 20 years old.
Last car I had to change a radiator on was a 1981 Fiesta Supersport, than needed one after 7 years.



Fan covers paid a visit to the local power coaters and fan motors got a refresh


Air-Con rad also had a freshen up whilst the Rad and Fans were out
