Wouldn't have thought the cutting out was due to water loss though.
about 35-40 spanker from motor factors

It worked fine when you had it yes.My question was aimed to Will to see if the heating worked since hes had it and it lost all the coolant.Hes maybe cooked the H/G by running the engine with no coolant.
If the radiator has a hole in it then it should be pretty noticeable if its lost all its coolant in 1 day.A tiny drip would take a few days to empty the system.
