crap xmas present

Postby Cakky » Thu Dec 28, 2006 2:20 pm

heading out to blackhead beach from waipukurau and temperature needle went straight up headed right up into the red, got it to blackhead, steam pissing out of overflow bottle, oil and crap all through overflow bottle and radiator looking like it didn't have a lot of water in it and not much oil in sump :(

more complicated due to the fact i replaced the headgasket 6 months ago and there was always a small amount of oil on top of the water in overflow bottle because the cooling system was so badly contaminated. so this time I'm thinking probably cracked head :(

maybe I should just quit $&#$% around and put a 4agze in it >< anyone want to help??

Unless you have muchos dolleros, I'd just chuck another small port at it. Especially if you're not able to do everything yourself.

yeah well either way I am going to have to borrow money to do it, so maybe I should just borrow more and do it right the first time rather then lose more money down the track :\

tis a sad situation

"Horsepower" is how fast you hit the fence.
