I do trust stu believe me. Thats why im trying to get to the bottom of it b4 i travel down to see him again.
As stu and others on here have highlighted , it could be the tank but last on the list of possibilities. Hence, i dont wanna spend £200 + on a ford replacement if i dont have to.
As its more likely to be the intercooler ive ordered a new Pro alloy one
Still no nearer to knowing if the tank could be a problem though ?
