Ah good stuff, that price is more like it.

I like the idea of being able to see how much coolant I have!

Looking forward to the pics

Oh yes, that is piece of mind for any paranoid DeLorean owner!

It helped at the weekend, when I was testing the Otterstat whilst keeping an eye on the temp gauge. I only needed to glance at the bottle to see what the coolant was doing, it was that clear! :D

I may be in the market to buy your old one mate or depending how tricky it is to convert I may upgrade also.

Mine seems to be leaking at the cap when under pressure even with the new rad cap fitted!!!!!!!!!!

Not sure you were clear enough in your comment mate.

What he means is that he would have some concerns regarding the quality control of a re-manufactured part due to the complexity of the system. ;)
