Re: Part car, part kettle! Help me!!
Then you have the same problem I had... cracked block.
Take the head off, and the shiney cylinder (steam cleaned one) is the culprit..

Re: Can anyone find out whats wrong with my car.. Reward for winner
ok, I understand what to do.....
but I dont understand how to do it...
Im not electrically minded... I have a draper multimeter with all the switches etc etc, but dont know how to use it.. (no instructions)
Which setting do i put it on..? Do I need the ignition on? battery plugged in?

Re: Refilling a battery.... questions
seems to be holding charge.....
but without a car and an automotive shop in sight, I had to distill my own water... although i think it may only have 80% distilled it though.
back to the wiring in the other posts...
