Thanks. I will definitely give that a look when I return.

So, wifey and I were looking forward to cooling off in good 'ole rainy England for three weeks and today, the British Met Office are issuing heatwave warnings with temperatures over 30 degrees C!

Still, Wimbledon tennis arrives in a weeks time, so it will definitely be raining by then!!

The last time I saw "mayonnaise" like that in the photo was with my wife's old Rover 25 with a head gasket failure. I have to say, I don't see this story ending well, frankly.

Never saw mayo that color before.

Look at it this way; it was to time to flush transmission and get a new radiator anyway given the age and mileage of the car. Just call it scheduled general maintenance.
