Subject: | Re: Leaking coolant |
Hi Richard
I have fitted silicone hoses all around with heat-sleeve
http://www.adlinsulflex.com/firesleeve/pyreflect-sleeve
Silicone hose from Forge Motorsport,
I used CTC clips from a GM/Opel car ( part no 90572595) because the
original Rotax clips Wouldn=92t go over the heat sleeve very easily,
But all my hoses wouldn=92t Leak unpressurised even without the clips, so
I
would look
at a damaged hose Or foreign matter between rubber hose and metal outlet,
Best wishes
Ivor
