Your sure you actually put anti freeze in ? -3 wouldn't freeze the water inside the engine me thinks ? Did you squeeze the top rad hose ? I had my diesel cooling system freeze a couple years back managed to thaw it out using hot water on the rad etc but that was proper cold like -13 or something ? |

I had 50-50 antifreeze freeze solid on the 8v in my 309 a couple of winters ago. Had no idea until I tried to start the engine and straight away the fecking cambelt snapped on the starter motor! It had gotten down to at least -20*C at the time - the thermometer I had stopped at -20.  ________________________________________ Ph1 306 GTi 6 | RX8 231 S1 | YBR 125 Cafe Racer | MT-03 660 |

We do have a very high chance of a White Christmas this year according to weather experts (of which I'm not one by the way ), so I'd say it's got to be worth a tenner.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

Ner i dont belive the hype of it all but it is a new begining of some kind, its nothing like the mellium bug thats for sure, what a load of bull that was.When it does happen, like all things in life it will happen when we least expect it, but it will happen one day with the earth being so delicate. ________________________________________ Pug fee`ver,Pick a Bogey, buy a Pug.

Well i guess the ancent mayans with their deep knowledge of space and time knows less than the rest of us, they were around far longer than the west ever have.From what ive found out it wont be that day when something happens more of a start of something good or bad as no one knows for a fact looking at their stonework carvings etc. We can make of it all what we want but no one knows either way, two weeks left till we know for certain. ________________________________________ Pug fee`ver,Pick a Bogey, buy a Pug.
