AdrianMealing Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 So today i have been fixing my sons car, whoever did the last cambelt change did not tension it correctly, water pump knackered, Renault Clio, bloody nightmare, got to take half the engine apart just to find the pump, and the french seem to like playing hide and seek with some of the bolts. amealing@texe.com Head of Industry Affairs Visit Our Website Texecom
