Just when I thought I had got everything running on the panda 100hp I spotted a slight wetness round the horizontal seam of the plastic radiator header expansion tank. Water was weeping from the top expansion hose where it connects near the top of the tank and running down to rest on the seam join. I released the clip to check if the hose was leaking and discovered a small crack in the plastic spout where the hose pushes on. Attempting to remove the hose has significantly increased the split where the plastic nozzle joins the tank. I assume driving with the top hose loose or disconnected will soon cause the coolant to disappear so I will need a new tank before driving any further.
