Now I know why guys put a cut-out switch on the cooling fans.

Saw this mentioned a couple of times and wondered what for,well running thru
some deep enough muddy water they got traction in it and ate into the radiator.
It's shot and gonna take a couple of days to get a new one.


Live and learn I guess.:(

I'm sorry to here about your little mishap. I hope that you are back driving your Forry (I assume it's a Forry) real soon.

Yeah I'm just getting the hang of this water crossing stuff.
I've been thru that pit when it was deeper than that but I hit it a little to hard that time(showing of for the camera) and paid the price.

But the Mighty Foz is up and running once again and ready for my West Virginia adventure.

Ah well, we live & learn, but it always seems to be the hard way.

But it's good to see that your Forry is back up & running again.

If one of the older members know how to link the footage from you tube, please feel free. I am not sure how to do that yet.

If I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure that's the one. But please correct me if I'm wrong.

Beigewagon, I seem to remember you posting a pic of your speedo just as it ticked over the 400K mark. So, as a matter of interest, how many km's does the mighty Beigewagon have on it now, if you don't mind me asking.

Mr Turbo
 
Hatari,

Thanks for finding and posting that for me.

Mr Turbo,

Yes the Beigewagon is going strong, it now has over 441,600 kms on the clock. Still no internal work done yet.
