    Nope your incorrect hot water doesn't burn you. It's cold water you should look out for. In the water system of a car its different.

    1.2 E-Type Ignition problem.

    I think it might be flooded now but I took the sparks out and cleaned them all and turned it over a couple of times with out the fuel line on to clean it out. When i removed the spark plugs fuels spits out at me. I removed the Plugs and turned the engine over. Every time Cam hits TDC cylinder...

    It also depends where the Head gasket breaks.. Can break mixing oil and water.. But could also break just entering water (on some engines) in the pistons so white smoke / water will come out exhaust But like 'Da' says

    Take it to a garage get it pressure checked they will properly not charge you more then £20. Then another £600 when they do the job lol.. I'm guessing there isn't much may-o in the oil cap or you would of heard of seen things going wrong. Clean the cap off and check it again in a day or two.

    Stupid Sky Internet

    I'm busy the same hours that Sky-Customer services work. So finding it hard phoning them. Yer I have to reset it every time my internet goes off.

    I would more expect to see the headgasket to go if the water level was Low and the engines got hot. other then the engine getting to hot i wouldn't see another reason for a 14,000 engine to blow its head gasket.

    Stupid Sky Internet

    If it was a Filter problem I would still be able to connect to the router. 4 computers running of wifi and one (this one) running on Ethernet cable
  23. Rob.

    Stupid Sky Internet

    Every thing is run of the same phone line socket and that has a filter. Internet just went out. But I also couldn't even get the router config panel up at 192.168.0.1 So I'm guessing its a router problem ?? No point really trying to do a ping test if i can't view the routers control panel

    Head gasket Shouldn't go on a car that's only done 14,000 miles NO matter how hard you drive it. Thats bad. Renault will try every thing to get out of it tho.

    Stupid Sky Internet

    For the last 2 days my internet keeps cutting off every 10 mins. I've checked all cables. Changed the RJ-11 as it was bent. Still the same problem. This is with the sky wireless router so its not a computer problem.

  29. Rob.

    KEROSENE

    Kerosene is it the same as paraffin? And what would it be like in a diesel engine (forgot about the fuelling system E.G. pumps lines filters I'm on about the combustion side of the stuff.)
