The TCT and the TCT . . . . . .Tiger Coloured Trike and Tiger Coloured Trailer. . . . . . about to venture into Wales.


Monday and DOT's radiator starts playing silly buggers . . . anyway, it was curry time at the Yew Tree later on.

Tuesday and DOT's radiator goes to West Mercia Radiators  -  who tell me it's fine and doesn't have any leaks.

Wednesday morning and there was a pool underneath DOT.

Rode over to West Mercia to show 'em the leak . . . .bone dry, no sign of a leak at all.

 

Thursday and still no sign of a leak.  I drained the system and added my antifreeze.

I left DOT with a sheet of cardboard underneath to show any drips.

 

Friday and it was turn of the two TCTs to go away for a few days - down in Llandovery.

 

Saturday's main event was dinner at the Owl's Nest Café

Sunday and I got back. ( Calling in at the Kabin Café for dinner )  Opened the garage only to find a great pool of water beneath DOT.

I made a pressure testing rig and put 25 psi of air into the rad - no bubbles at all when submerged in water.

The hoses were fine.  What I did find was the rubber washer beneath the drain plug was split. . . . . . . A silly thing, and I hope that was the cause of all the hassle.
