Coolant flush after fitting new water pump.
wait how does that work? you stick it into the water pump, hose it down and it comes out the radiator? if that works for flushing all the coolant then that's mighty cool.

Done this many times with various cars Iv had over the years....
Works well to back flush the system this way too....
Just keep going until the water runs clear, then refill with antifreeze and replace radiator cap.... job done...

Went to bleed the brakes after fitting new braided lines, discs pads and drums etc.
Found the banjo wasn't tight enough and was leaking so I had to faff about getting it tightened up. It's holding pressure now but it was too dark to continue.
