Yes indeed. Three little ones under 6 are monopolizing my attention lately. Not that I mind terribly, though :-D

Also, everything else Big-Bird said is also true. Now time to find time to find a leak...

And yes, heat is a wonderful thing! Especially when the temperature turns the day after Big-Bird helps you fix it!!

I just gave you some direction.....you fixed it yourself. The leak is another issue but until you do the test make sure you monitor the coolant level at every fuel fill. Low coolant can destroy an engine and make your Delica worth its weight in scrap. Engine rebuilds for the 4M40 are not cheap.
Yeah I joined the Dark Side because the medical plan is top shelf!

Took the van in to get it fixed by someone who has time for these sorts of things, and under-charged us!! Thanks so much for all the help, everyone! Coolant is now nicely contained in the coolant system. Heat works like a beauty, and I can now worry about the tiny little non-important things I want to take care of (like tiny screws for door handles...)

All in all a massive success!!
