i pressure test it and it holds fine. then one thing i notice is that when the fans turn on its in low speed. shouldnt the fans turn on low speed first then high speed? i tested the fans low and high speed and the relays they all work fine

what i mean is the temp gauge read at the half way point then 2 marks pass that the fans turn on but its low speed shouldn’t the fan be in high speed by then? and then BEFORE the half way mark the fans should be in low speed?

thanks

yes i think i got the air out of the system as for 2 speeds my van seems to have it? unless its a function it don’t uses? my van also has the bleeder valves to

as for the pressure test hold long should it hold pressure? and yes i did the pressure thats on the rad cap to

i hope my last post made sense?

thanks

yes i did find a place that i can do that with

my question is if it seems to hold pressure and i don’t see any leaks then what is the next step? if i have a bad intake gasket will it not hold pressure or for that matter a headgasket?

thanks

yes i did see that video

i guess i am trying to find the “leak” i don’t seem to be loosing coolant just that one time when it really overheated

so at this point i am not sure how to find/ check like the intake gasket to confirm this?

[sclark]

ya well i dont have a pressure tester i will call around to see how much one cost and get one in the mean time i would assume if i pressure test it and it slowly loose pressure some thing in side the engine? if i dont see a visable leak?

thanks

but wouldn’t the block test show up as a bad head gasket . if the intake gasket was bad and that would cause the head gasket to go bad?

i am just wondering why the block test didn’t show a bad head gasket?

ya it overheat bad that one time it still overheats but not as bad but this could be cuase i have been watching it close so it could be i stop it before it gets that bad

ya if i have to replace intake might as well replaced head gaskets dont you think? but eaither way it dont look like a fun job to do! lol
