fresh engine bay+ leaking hose:S?


Recommended Posts

ok so i have got hold of the vr6 and its lovely i can safely say it scares me which i like :)

i am loosing coolent when the car is stood started i can see a pipe giving out a mist of spray, does this sound simple like its either a new pipe or just need pushing on more? due to the weather and working i havnt had time to check it out, also i really want to clean the bay up and make it as colourful as i can, as im new to this im unsure of what i can easily change, like hose pipes etc? any guidence and links to items i can get will be great cheers :)
