What on earth?????, everyone knows the KV6 head gaskets are indestructible, and if only you had adhered to the MGR procedure for bleeding the system, all would be well

Default Rear Wheel Arches

Having seen a few post recently on the dreaded dirt and moisture trap on the rear wheel arch, I decided it was time to take the wheel arch covers off and have a good look round.

Not too bad overall (I had painted the arches with Waxoyl 2-3 years ago. However.......plenty of crud in the area next to the sill). I applied some Dynax S50 in that area and some Dynax UB on the cable cover, which was looking much worse than it probably was. That should do me for a while.
