thats a first :blink: how??

Has the black thing cracked?

 

[rcproperty]

frost damage?

 

[OoO]

The plastic manifold is welded (plastic) along the seem. This has sprung a leak, with it spraying about, it was confusing where the leak was. I think it more of a manufacture defect tho, i have used the reel for no more than 4 weeks!

No excessive pressure either!

 

[OoO]

frost damage?

See post above, vans are heated if weather is anywhere near zero /emoticons/smile.png
