Take the radiator cap of, when cold
Start the engine , look for water gyser effect coming from radiator, sure sign of a head gasket,head failure Take the dipstick out ,look for signs of water residue IF the above seem fine, take all the plugs out and look for one thats majorly different in colour If still the above are fine, nice simple checks Get the radiator recoed, rodded out by a rad shop , the rad is blocked |
