have a look at pic 13 .. enlarge.. the rad cap!! is over to the right on top of the housing, its a 2.4 are they all like this as most of the engine shots i have seen have the rad cap is on the radiator. also has EFI TURBO DIESEL on the large pipe, very similar to my supra turbo.

Yep that is standard for the 2.4

thats all correct...........for a 2.4. the ones with a rad cap on the radiator are 3.0 litre examples, though thaat one does appear to be very very clean...

[blackpoolsparks]

my 2.4 had the cap on the rad

Not the ideal place to mount a fire extinguisher either.

Survive a crash and get done in by the flying extinguisher.

Gordon didn't buy Carl's truck, he bought Brian's.

Truck has an engine or cabin fire and the rear window won't open fast enough (if at all) to get at the extinguisher.

That is an extremely clean and tidy engine bay. I haven't seen one like that for years.

Yes you have.

[gwh200]

its much like mine.............now udtrevs surf had the most SPOTLESS engine bay.










































edit : any reference to the word spotless should not be taken literally, in fact it means the complete opposite...

[Maverick]

Yes you have.

Have you seen my engine bay?

It's not just the clean bit (I did try to wash some of Salisbury plains off the other day but the pressure washer at work broke). It's also the (lack of) tidy (to many extras).

If you were hinting about your work of automotive porn, it pains me to say it but it looks nothing like a 2.4 (or goes, or sounds, or .........................)
