Hey chaps, think I have found the source, but unsure of whether its the real culprit.
Since i have had the old girl i have been changing coolant bits and pieces none stop. Thought I had fixed everything.
Changed matrixs o-rings, then the matrix, then the vaporisers on the lpg.
Still slowly loosing water.
Put a filler in the top hose to get rid of the pain in the arse air lock that always appears there. And because I am a Paranoid Android I stuck a pressure guage on it to check the pressure.
Seems good, 7 psi when cruising, give it the some stick and it goes to 9 psi temporarily then comes back down.
Anyway, notice when I turned it off a hissing sound comming from the coolant expansion tank filler cap. I changed the o-rings around the insert but still does it. So I think the safety valve is passing slowly?
Anyone else had this problem? Should hold upto 14 psi no? I think my coolant is escaping as vapour through this as its running?
Bought a new so I will report back if its true.
Cheers
Chris
