What did you do to your jimny today?

Very quick job before work - took off the rusty spare wheel holder and Hammerited it.  I didn't do the mounting faces as they weren't rusty and it avoids sticking (Hammerite takes weeks to fully cure).
 

The after-work job was changing the coolant and the radiator hoses.  Pretty grim getting the bottom hose off, as the engine-end clip was in an orientation that made it really difficult to get molegrips onto it.  Should have found a new O-ring for the drain plug, had I thought on, but it is fine anyway.

Got about 4.1 litres of fresh coolant in, which is good enough to refresh it.  The old stuff looked ok and flushing it with fresh water always leaves some in there and weakens the mix (I used the real Suzuki Ecstar stuff as that's what was already in there, and it only comes pre-mixed)..

It's a self-burping system if you fill slowly and the level in the uncapped rad doesn't even plummet when the thermostat opens, as it does in many cars.

I also fitted a new rad cap, just in case.  They can get tired.
