I haven’t checked the trans fluid, I have to take the air filter assembly off to do that. I will check that tomorrow, I do not believe there is an oil cooler, but I will check that as well. I was told today that when my Father checked the oil, he said it was over 2 quarts low! He is very thorough with oil changes and checking oil. So this is a concern to me to be 2 quarts low all of a sudden. I’ve never thought about freeze plugs because I have many checks for leaks under the hood, and have not seen a single leak since I replaced the T-stat housing.
I appreciate your apology, and I offer my apologies for being so agressive about the situation. Thank You very much for your input on this matter. I greatly appreciate all your input. I have looked at all that you have suggested. Your input as well as everybody’s has been very helpful. I am glad I found this forum.
THANK YOU!!! HAVE A WONDERFUL NIGHT!!!Thank You for your input Barnyb, and everybody’s as well. I will get hold of a pressure tester today, and come back with my input on the testing. Thanks again to all!!!
I agree totally, there are no signs of a blown head gasket. I can insure there is no moisture in the floor board, I have looked thoroughly thru the outside of the car and thru out the dash and have not seen any leaks anywhere. I am truly baffled by this. Like I said in a earlier post, this Reverse Flow Cooling System is new to me. I have just come to the conclusion that the water is just simply boiling off in side the system.
I stopped doing this Professionally back in 1990! I do know alot about cars, But I was told this car has what is called a Reverse Flow Cooling System. That is new to me! Sometimes a DIY person needs to ask few questions to get caught up on somthing that might be new to them. In this case, It is me! reguardless of who you are talking to, you should refrain from telling people they are asking STUPID questions. To me your stupid comment is obviously towards the question I asked.
It has the degauss cap. I don’t have the means to Pressure test anymore, But It doesn’t seem to be holding pressure very well. Sorry I should have put that in my last post. And Thank You Mr. Wysetech. For having the comon Courtesy of not telling people thier asking Stupid Questions!
the fans are running as they should, they come on & off as normal. There is no steam coming from the Tailpipe, there is no Water mixing with the oil, or “MILKSHAKE” It does not seem to be a Head Gasket which is what it sounds like you hinting towards. The water is boiling off, I can see & hear the water boiling into the reservior thru the overflo hose on the reservior, I am not going off just the gauge. I have to add water after each time I drive it, even after driving for a few miles Aprox (5-Miles) there is a Point when the temp gauge will drop immediately down to what would be normal running for the car. and at that point on I am almost always safe to continue driving to where I need to go. But I almost always have to add some water after I get there.
