Problem
Heater doesn't blow warm air - engine overheating after a long
run...
Solutions
1. Check the seals on the radiator cap, if they appear to be
damaged
in any way then replace the cap. The integrity of the seals ensures that the cooling system automatically bleeds any trapped air from the system when the engine goes through a warm up / cool down cycle
2. Remove and inspect the water pump. The impellor blades should be around 20mm long. On my car (107000 miles) the blades had almost completely rotted away. Tech Tips supplied by Richard Moore |
