turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 21y 10m 7d Gender: Male Posted 27/05/12 12:16 PM Share Posted 27/05/12 12:16 PM The best idea is to paint it black. It will take all the worry off your head if you cant see it.My Fg is the same as the one in the picture. No seamen in the coolant, just on the sides of the overflow tank.

turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 21y 10m 7d Gender: Male Posted 28/05/12 02:30 AM Share Posted 28/05/12 02:30 AM I just stuck a small paint brush in the overflow reservoir to see what it was. Not oily, just dusty stuff that has settled on the sides. Brushes off easy and like dust going into water.I was going to Phuck with peoples heads and say it was an oily residue and could be a sign of a weaping heat exchanger but didn't want to be a -anker today.
