Me talking to ShaggersSax_VTR on MSN

who goes off shagging, leaves their engine running and forgets to turn their cooling fan on...then ends up going to tescos at 2 in the morning because they need to buy 10 lites of water as they have blown a pipe or rad up and the car has pissed water everywhere...?

Ummm Yer...Idiot made it a manual fan...Anyways, was destracted and forget to turn the fan on...
Nest thing I knew the coolant light was on...water was pissed everywhere...
Im guessing pipe or rad...
Went to Tescos and got 5 bottles of 17p water!
Poured 3-4 bottles in and bled in all through...!
Could it have damaged my engine? e.g headgasket?
