[Coops]

lovely mate, remeber seeing this before! least the engine bay!

whats the power steering mod? and willy ARB?

[Tullyvernon]

Nice, like the colour

[MattyH16valver]

Very nice.....what colour is it?

[cliokongen]

Thanks guys...

I'm sure most of you had the servo fluid spill all over the engine bay.
I've had this happen even when there was the correct amount of fluid in.
Sometimes it just gets to hot - so it spills out the little vent hole.

I've taken a pipe normally used for extracting fuel from fueltanks when installing parking heaters. Cut it to length, drilled a hole in the cap, conneted a small hose which end just behind the right front wheel. If anything comes out on a hot day on the track - at least its not in my engine bay. I know it should be collected somehow so it would not end up on the tarmac - anyway it would end on on the tarmac even without this mod.

Glad you like it....
Was really in doubt which colour to choose.
It was this one or white...
Choose something new for a change.

It's Electric Orange from the Focus ST.
It has been altered a little bit - darker more colour and more metallic effect.
