[urq] Boiling Antifreeze in the Head? Is this normal?Quattrodude quattrodude at comcast.netWed Jan 21 19:12:13 PST 2009
The car...basic 83 WX URQ...nothing too fancy, but just curious, is this normal after a typical driving run? I can hear it bubble for about 1-2 mins after turning off the car. There is no that much pressure in the coolant tank, and I'm in the process of installing a water temp gauge. The oil temp for the entire hour or so I was driving it was mid to low (as it was a nice cold day out). I was not pushing the car with boost etc...I have not lost any antifreeze. I looked on line and I have found others that say its not uncommon? but thought I would check to see what others say? The cooling fan does come on as normal, I do have a "cooler" thermostat in the car and nothing seems to overly hot? I have fresh antifreeze, prestone that was a premix, so I think I'm good there? What have others experienced? Thanks JP Chaplen 83 URQ
