Hi Everyone
After 6 years in the garage, I decided to try and get my X1/9 on the road. I took it to my local garage to have the coolant hoses replaced and I've been told that the coolant pipes that run down the centre of the car are rotten and feel like they will crush if touched.
I've looked on line and there seems to be a cheap fix of inserting 1" copper pipes down the originals.
I am concerned about the restricted water flow. Has anybody done this and if so, have they suffered any problems with cooling?
Regards
James.
