Well the plastic bag option fixed the washer bottle. Run on issue was sorted with a tune up. New problem now is that my heater just popped and filled the cabin up with water!
Guess what I'm doing this weekend!!!

Not fixed the heater yet as was trying to get another matrix but my spare turned out to be shot as well. I have now bit the billet and bought a new matrix but still need to recon the box.
On another note, since joining up the heater pipes to bypass the old heater the engine has been overheating to the point that the car cuts out at lights etc. Any ideas how to fix this? Has anyone got a flow diagram for the cooling system and oil system?
Thanks
James
