AllTorque 37,992 Report post Posted February 25 How are you bleeding air out of the cooling system when you fill it? Did you disconnect a heater hose and remove the bleeder bolt above the thermostat housing? I wonder if blanking the small hoses that go from one water bridge to the other are causing pockets of air to be trapped in the rear, as that’s something you have changed with the supercharger. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sheepers 18,570 Report post Posted March 1 Ive got no issue with taking the motor out, I'm just stoked I know what the problem is, now I can fix it. And while the engines out I can do a few mods that I've thought of that will make life easier for future sheepers. I dont think it's got M series aids, M series aids is when the oil, coolant and combustion gases become one. Regularly. 9 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glad you found the issue. Hopefully it's as simple as getting new gaskets and isn't a warped head or machining fault. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corbie 3,061 Report post Posted March 3 If it's leaking to the water jacket you would be pumping hot gases into the coolant? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bling 18,161 Report post Posted March 3 That's a fair way the gas would have to travel to get to the water jacket surely? Wouldn't it create bubbles in the coolant that should blow the coolant out into the overflow? Does it just take a tiny nick and she's all over? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
