Today I went to Tesco in Galashiels for the first time for a few months. Took the Austin, which is what I usually use for local running around.
On the way back a core plug blew out on the way home and filled the car with steam. Very spectacular. I carry a few spares including a core plug so not a great problem. That's only the 3rd core plug in 50 years. and only the 2nd time this car has stopped on me in 30,000 miles.
Must change the other plugs now. The one that failed had rusted through.
