What's green coming from under your car??

Just what one wants to hear before a 100 mile run! Luckily it was just a slightly loose hose clamp on the lower radiator hose. And that it showed up after a 30 mile drive to the meeting spot, not along the run.

That's what I get for parking between a Jag and an MG.
 
Are you sure it was from your car?? The trickle down effect!
 
It was the Jag! It was the Jag! I know Kuz every time I get close to em they turn green with envy.---Keoke-- /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif
 
I had trouble with my TR6 several years ago. It was a very warm/hot day, on hot tarmac and like yours, the problem was very fixable. I was freshly showered with a white shirt and light colored shorts...reminded me of your picture.
It was a totally different picture by the time I was finished.
Oh, the fond memories....
 
/bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/lol.gif ...gowan then, blame th' poor MG an' Jag. Nice photo tho. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/devilgrin.gif /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif

at one time or another

Your car was not leaking. It was beside those other guys and decided to mark its territory.
Nice picture BTW.
Send this to Dale, so he can see another TR6 in a compromised position.HA HA

David!

You know I don't have to bend over like that.
With the Crypt Car on jack stands it's real
easy to see stuff below.

Paul, I once offered to assist a young woman put a
quart of oil in her car. She was a liberated sort and
informed my quite curtly she could do it herself, thank
you very much.

She then removed her radiator cap and proceeded to pou
the oil it into her radiator. She then drove off.

You didn't, like maybe, have a "senior moment" and pour
a quart of oil into the radiator, causing a slight
overflow of green coolant fluid to occur?

Just a concept, that's all!!

My friend once stopped to help a lady whose engine was on fire. She said that everything was under control; she was going to put the fire out by spraying it with an aerosol can.

The can contained starting fluid.

Dale,

You didn't motice that I was in the exact position required to check the oil level correctly, did you?

Whatever is not on the frame and ground is obviously left in the pan.

Therein lies the problem. Pictures can be deceiving....
