Mk 1 heater matrix

Post by Mothman »

Had a bit of trouble of later with water loss from Sophie and i suspected the heater matrix.
pulled it out today, not a too difficult job with her being LHD and the spare i had slotted in jyst fine but would not connect up as its from a MK 2 and the pipes coming off it are 1/2 in too long. The long and the short of it is that the local rad specialist in Tun Wells cant get a replacement but is going to remove the bit from the MK2 and somehow fit the MK 1 bit to it.

Just in case, anyone got a MK 1 heater matrix going? Probably as scarce as hens teeth.
