Was a good day today, have other things to do so decided to leave around midday after being one of the first to arrive.... I couldn't stop drooling over that Stage 3 Roush..
About 5 minutes from home I heard a strange hissing... Decided to pull over then and there to see what was going on..
Turns out the car decided to blow a radiator hose and I lost probably 95% of the coolant (bottom rad hose was empty), I'm not sure how long it was running without coolant, but it can't have been long as there was still some water coming out of the water pump when I took the hose off...
I'm really hoping there's no damage other than my burnt thumb and a bit of a mess to clean up..
These 6 cylinder heads are known for warping when they overheat..
Although.. It would be a good excuse for a rebuild, but as nice as it would be it wouldn't be cheap!
Thankfully, I had a few liters of pre-mixed anit-freeze and water in the boot and a spare hose clamp to get me home...
