thats a trick of the trade to avoid ebay
butt rapege mate .
plus that is p+p :P
my mate put the header tank off his 5 turbo in the dishwasher it came out pretty clean
Put a few spoons ful of washing powder in the header tank then drive around for a few hours flushes the system annd cleans the tank. Then empty system and top up with clean water and anifreeze works a treat honest

never heard of some one doing that before
sounds like a good idea tho
will wait untill some 1 else does it first http://www.drunkendonkey.net/eng/html/emoticons/giggle.gif
tried and tested many methods myself
nothing beats a brand new water tank imo :P
