Don't use those words while talking about your present engine, you'll give it ideas 🤯😜

Pressure test with engine hot & not running ?

Down my leg :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Theft? 🤔🤪

Its going somewhere 🤔. J

No No stop :stars: Too late I need to get changed again:(:(

4.4

Mine is different

possibly down the rear then? Note there is a black cap at the bottom as well🤔

Are you the 3.6 or the 4.4?

Get out, your not helping! 😛

Any wetness around the rad areas, The egr valves and coolers? Any oil heat exchangers? Gearbox oil heat exchanger?

OK, so nothing under the tank either👍

if it's the same unit👍

I It does yes and into a tube built into the casing. It goes to the right and down the tank side edge to underneath. 👍

I've got plenty of leakage :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Try tightening the nuts up , any sign of leakage? 🤔 🤭

I'll be gad when you've sorted this out Kermit as all the talking about leaks keeps making me run to the loo :stars: :stars: 😁

Can you get your hand under the bottle and check for coolant from the drain that runs over and to the right?

yep thats perfect but wrong :D took the cap off when it was cold, no pressure (good) took the cap off when it was hot, no pressure (bad) topped it up when it was cold, no pressure. messed with the cap and put it back on when it was still cold, no...

Yes but.... Any signs of leaking? 🫣

Let me see If I can explain myself thinking. When you top it up/fill it you do so with no pressure in the system 👍. When you put the cap on you are not trapping any pressure👍. Now if you put the cap on with it warm/hot, cos you were running it...

Has to depend on many things. The V8 often sounds like it is revving hard when it isn't. You'd run a 4 pot at the same revs for instance. It is very easy to over gear a vehicle. And how fast do you want to go? I had a 200Tdi S3 88, I did put...

Fair enough lad👍

Sat on a rebuilt lt230 1:12 the brakes are up to the task I’ve fitted anti roll bars and new props I’ll deal with the diffs if they fail but I think they should be up to the job. I’m not planning any off road work A muddy field will be the worst...

I think you've misread somewhere lol. Yesterday.. or was it day before.. engine war fully hot with no system pressure.. after messing with the cap there was "some" pressure, but not as much as i would have expected for a hot engine. So i think...

Understood but if there are no traces of leaks then it ain't? 🤔😛
