started up to go to echuca then Melbourne and noticed it spewing coolant everywhere. the hose that goes to or from the heater, closest to the alternator, came off. the hose barb had rusted in half, its out now but no replacement on a Sunday arvo in the country. are they gettable? its not threaded into the block, just pressed in by the looks of it. it was about to get a new radiator and welch plugs anyway so it can all get fixed together now. problem is it was going back to Melbourne to get the exhaust finished late this week, and after this week I won't be back in Melbourne but going to the northern territory! could get interesting...
