No i sprayed it on then used my NAP sack pump pressure sprayer (filled with hot water) so to minimise damage to anything electrical.

yep. first you will need a gallon of petrol, then you need to purchase a box of matches.

pour petrol over renault & then gently throw a lit match at the fuel covered vehicle

& run like feck.

Job done

Got hold of a power upgrade thingy.

You can feel the extra power, especially when going up hill in fifth.

After running a cleaner through the cooling system (as advised by LezT) today I flushed it out and put new coolant in. Decided to do oil and filters while I had the bash plates off. Job well done I'd say.
