This is what I like to hear :naughty Right then lads, who wants in. And what area and I'll get something cooking :D

A sad truth Rick, if I can make a weekend out as enjoyable for everyone else as it is for me then that makes me happy. I just hope when I'm older and less able, someone comes and does the same for me, if we're not all driving electric shit by then :doh

Of course we will :thumb2 Would be ace to see him again, and I promise I wont rock his caravan :lol

What Rick said :cool:

Our Patrol's are the same year and when I dropped the coolant in mine when I ripped the engine out it was green. Have a google on it and you'll find plenty literature on it out there. I'm not going to go out there and preach to people what they should use in their trucks especially if it...

Dexcool rings a bell for the red stuff, I'm going to have to have a Google again :lol I do remember the red stuff has to be swapped less frequently :nenau
