ROUTEMASTER pack 3 stages 28 , 29 , 30 .

[JDave Say]

Pack 3 ,  stage 28 is the radiator assembly all these parts are plastic with plenty of detail quite an easy issue to do really , only a small note and that is assembly is ok providing you have plenty of light to work with as all these parts are black which makes studying the assembly guide carefully essential, the two silver pipes are not used at this stage so pop them in your safe place ,,  stage 29 finishing and fitting the engine is definitely one of those stages where you need to give yourselves plenty of time calm your nerves make a cuppa take the dog for a walk etc ideally you could do with no distractions, this stage is well noted from the previous release of this wonderful bus basically it one of those stages your going to remember for quite a while but can be done with patience and also gives you a great sense of accomplishment too , noted are especially the black injector pipes and the other black and silver pipes they are fragile and they have labels attached to them to help guide you to where they go on the engine , I cut the white labels off one by one very close to the black pipes then eased the rest of label off the pipe not easy without breaking them but again can be done with care , once the engine is finished you can then attach it to the chassis again orientation is the key to success here especially with the front cross member and it’s at this point that you can also add the black pipe for the power steering part number 25i ,, and the radiator and silver pipes etc , , stage 30 is the full exhaust system once sorted you have almost completed the running gear of your bus ,, and you’ll soon be onto pack 4 👍😊
