Nice conflict there...
The colour it is now is some form of watery brown... it does not look healthy! The only reason I'm not insisting on a complete flush right now is that there's no time, NCT is tomorrow and it's just showing below the minimum line at the moment. Want to just get it through tomorrow and then I can sort out the rest.
Cheers for replies anyway.

You might be as well of just to drain it and put in fresh coolant. Last week when my focus was in the coolant was a light colour. And when the mechanic went to do the tb and water pump. The whole water pump was rusted and on the way out. Just shows you the damage watery coolant can do. I never thought it would cause any real trouble. It has proper bright pink stuff now so one less thing to worry about.
Edit: sorry just seen you don't have time for coolant change I would just top it up with water and drain the whole lot after the nct then.0 -

I've been going mad for a DC2 the past two weeks, they really hold their value though!
Had afew of those stuck up my exhausts since i got the new car, alot of nutters drive them (resistant to 5 cylinder fumes too unfortunately but now probably as deaf as sin and checking for bulletholes on their front bumpers) :pac:0 -

I've only ever been in the passenger seat, felt seriously fast off the line with the factory LSD.
Graham_b18's old car at that, it was beautiful.
The old wive's tale is that next to the NSX they're the best handling car Honda ever put out.
Wouldn't go that far top 3 Fwd cars though, not hard to modify a decent Fwd chassis to have a nice neutral balance though.
Well that or make the chassis out of concrete blocks and old boots stick in a 240bhp engine and slap on an OPC badge

well the only other black one is this 1997 with 108,000 km, it looks a little rough as its a grade 3 and I am not sure whats going on with the interior(are they the seats or do they have a cover over them?)
It has every extra tick so is fully loaded and it has a sunroof.0 -
