#133: Re: ushers now track project stripping more (24/8/13) Author: usher, Location: northallertonPosted: Sun Aug 25, 2013 4:26 pm ---- The 2 pipes that go to the bay I cut one off and shortened the longer coolant hose in the bay and twisted the other slightly and put them together with the bleed valve at the top
Hope that makes sence if not I can take pics
It is kinked slightly but it's not a main pipe
