AllTorque Posted February 25, 2020 Posted February 25, 2020 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
Roman Posted March 1, 2020 Posted March 1, 2020 There arent any M series engines nearby that transmitted their sickness to your 1UZ? Well good news is, at least you found the issue! Good luck with getting it fixed up. 5 1 Quote
maxted Posted March 1, 2020 Posted March 1, 2020 motor out sucks but atleast you have found the issue!! Quote
Popular Post sheepers Posted March 1, 2020 Popular Post Posted March 1, 2020 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

Glad you found the issue. Hopefully it's as simple as getting new gaskets and isn't a warped head or machining fault. Quote

Yowzer Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 How does a leak between cylinders cause it to overheat though? Quote
Corbie Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 If it's leaking to the water jacket you would be pumping hot gases into the coolant? 1 Quote
Bling Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 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
RUNAMUCK Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 I realise there must have been nowhere else to stick it, But genius who said "let's put the starter in the Vee of the motor" must have been a special kind of sadist. Great progress David. Bravo! 3 Quote
