Hi
My wonderful Fiat punto has sent me somewhere close to insanity.
last week it had a new head gasket and the cylinder head skimmed.
There is air in the system and me and my dad (and a garage) have tried all sorts to get it out with no luck (I've now lost the bleed valve screw thing too!)
the power steering is OK but very occaisionally locks up when pulling out of a parking space. it has never done it when I've been driving though!
Basically, the air in the system is the biggest problem and I've tried everything. It doesn't look like it's going anywhere so i can't drive the car at all now or the head gasket is going to get wrecked...again!
The car is a V reg 2000 1.2 and i only has 41000 miles on the clock.
Apart from this air thing, the car is fine! It seems such a shame to get it towed off to a scrap yard but I don't know know if there are any other options to at least get a bit of something for it.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Sarah
