Question


...cabbies put sheets of cardboard behind the front grille of their Hackney Cabs ?

Seen it done for years and always wondered, then saw another at lunchtime.

I believe that it's to stop the engines getting too cold. Diesel goes lumpy when it gets really cold and can clog up the injectors.

And of course in the winter, the heater may not work the best, so blocking up the rad can help keep ur toes warm
