sounds like you have a head gasket leaking or a crack in the head.

o3 cobra
 
you dont think it could be a air pocket in the system and needs burped out

grabbinandstabbin 06-06-2010 08:15 PM

possible. did it do this before you changed the water pump? i assumed that you changed the pump because it was running hot.

it did run hot but not all the time somedays it would but some it wouldnt then it started leaking then i changed it the guy that dynoed it for me is the one that did it for me i drove it home after he fixed it and did fine then i got home it started pushing water out the cap at high boost

if it wasn't doing this before the pump change the a air pocket is possible. if it was pushing water before the pump change then i highly doubt it is an air pocket. i would most likely say it is a head gasket.

it is work a try to burp the air out of it because it will definitely cause it to do what you are saying. if it started doing it at high boost and then got worse i would say that you have a blown head gasket. you can run a pressure test on the cooling system.

thats not what i wanted to hear thats what i figured was wrong with it but i thought they might be a trick to burping the system i hadnt had the car long couple months dont really no much about them
