CHF 11S is also specified, and Halfords CHF is a suitable repalcement.

Thanks, chaps!  Approptiate fluid ordered; now all I have to do is worry why the level is falling (albeit very slowly).

Best, B

The pipe that passes across the bottom of the radiator stack is a contender- it slowly rots and goes porous, and often fails completely.

Bought a 2nd hand one (no new ones available) from Neo's.  Arrived this morning and 'looks like' brand new: no corrosion; original black paint unmarked.  Will be fitted next week when it goes i for its MOT.

Thanks again to all who replied, B
