Issues.... oh the issues....
 

So I bought this car recently..... Replaced the radiator.... Yet it still pukes up coolant every time I shut the car off and have to refill before I go anywhere....

Now tonight I have been fighting an issue where the car hesitates and bucks under partial/cruising throttle... doesn't matter the speed, happens under like 3k rpm. After driving for about 10-15 mins it drives normal again.

Whats up with these issues?

Re: Issues.... oh the issues....
 

It pukes coolant? Where, does it burn it as in smoke cloud or leak? Is it over heating?

Re: Issues.... oh the issues....
 

will puke from the overflow tank..... It will only overheat if I don't get it filled all the way and there is air left in the system.

Re: Issues.... oh the issues....
 

I would do a presssure test of the coolant system

Re: Issues.... oh the issues....
 

Yea pressure test... Although if youve overheated it a few times it may be the least of your worries.........

Re: Issues.... oh the issues....
 

Thats what I am worried about. Contacted a builder in my area to see about a rebuild. Going to be doing pressure test tomorrow and see what I find....

Re: Issues.... oh the issues....
 

Did a pressure test... no leaks found... System held pressure.....

Removing the overflow tank from the system all together and blocking the nipple on the t-stat housing?
I do have a Megan Racing Radiator installed

Did you test the cap?

Re: Issues.... oh the issues....
 

replaced the cap

Re: Issues.... oh the issues....
 

do you see bubble in the coolant with the engine running and the cap off?

Re: Issues.... oh the issues....
 

No, not since I burped it...

Same old story's lol I had this a few times have u bled it properly with my alloy rad I had to bleed it near the throttle body but I completely flushed everything thru at the block also. Us be a tiny hole in return pipe hence pushing water into overflow n not returning bk when cooling if not that it's the seals do u get bubbles cold start sum bubbles when hot is normal it's agitation from water pump unless it's gushing lol

this happened to me, it ended up just being the conection hose between the two tanks so have a good look in and around there
