NCC Posted August 18, 2006 Author Share Posted August 18, 2006 Would RadWeld/Seal not do the job Nath? ;) I tried that first Mart The hole was a little on the large side, even for 2 bottles of the stuff \ \ How he manage to make a hole just blowing it out he bang it or something ??? not had that and we have to blow the carters out daily ??? and how did the oat straw do nath? We took the oil coolers off first to wash them out, getting them in and out is very tight and tricky with the hoses etc and we must have caught the main rad with one of the edges on the oil cooler, was in too much of a rush too get back to straw carting : The oat straw was a right bugger to bale, axial flow had combined it so was smashed to high heaven and we really struggled to pick the stuff up, it just kept rolling up and coming out the sides of the pickup : The dust was also a bugger, had to get out and clean the grills every now and then as the massey was getting red hot \ \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
