Some mechaincs rating???

[ianrobinson1989]

Right 2 jobs for the weekend. Just wanna know some 'difficulty ratings' on changing my radiator and my sump. Easy? Hard? Awkward? Fiddily? Do it with ya eyes closed? haha. Both bought n ready to be fitted.

Use wd40 or similar and warm the engine up after a good wire brushing
