I would say it's a Spoonerism for manifold.

Something to do with Addo being in the southern hemisphere - the letters get jumbled up by the time they reach us in UK

When I was typing another reply recently, I found the els came out faster than the ohs, possibly due to a more aerodymanic shape.

As a result, my post had two "blots" and no bolts. Nuts, I thought, and decided intent was clear though diction damaged. For good measure, some lightweight Spoonerisms were added.

Yes, life is generally a serious matter but we should all find a little time to see Billy now and again.

Cheers, Adam.

Pull in to service station off the motorway on a hard run and leave engine running. Get the torch out and your head in about it. Do you have one of those crazy shower head like heaters that sits inline on a hose at bulkhead ?Could it be coming out of there at pressure ?. Maybe also check /renew thermostat. That could be opening too slow.

What about the header tank?...could that have a split that leaks under pressure? Try to arrange some kind of vessel to catch any tell tale water coming out overflow on header tank en route.

The Germans have their own layout too...

In fact most countries do...

To really make a good mess, try the Dvorak...

Turned out in the end that ny water leak was the water pump after all. the bearing had failed completely, which was allowing the cam belt to rub on the block due to the amount of movement in the pulley.

Easy job in the end.
