Went to Sheffield yesterday, anyone who's been will know is quite hilly especially from wigan (A57).
Gets there and at one point the car gets to 110degC. We dropped our daughter off at uni and went for summit to eat in a pub, at that point I could smell the engine was cooking. About 1.5hrs later we left after I topped the water up, it jumped reet back up to 110 after 10 mins so I pulled over and opened the bonnet to find summit behind the engine had split shatting it's coolant all over the place.
Question is, will the HG be fubared. I did refill the rad and turn engine over to see the water shoot out the rad about 6 inches.
